I Will
was the first song which Paul wrote to his new gilfriend
Linda Eastman, his future wife. It took 67 takes to complete,
and featured a clever dum-dum-dum vocal bass guitar impersontion
by Paul. John, meanwhile, tapped out a beat on wood with
metal. George did not take part on the recording of this
song.
I Will
(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)
Who knows how long I've loved you
You know I love you still
Will I wait a lonely life time
If you want me to I will
For if
I ever saw you
I didn't catch your name
But it never really mattered
I will always feel the same
Love you
forever and forever
Love you with all my heart
Love you whenever we're together
Love you when we're apart
And when
at last I find you
Your song will fill the air
Sing it loud so I can hear you
Make it easy to be near you
For the things you do endear you to me
And you know I will
I will
Ooo, la
