… Was a fool with my money. And I lost every dime. And the sun stopped shining. And it rained all the time.

                        It did set me back some. But I made it through. But I'll never get over losing you

                                                … Do you know how much you mean to me?

             Should've told you 'cause it's true. I'd get over losing anything. But I'll never get over losing you.

… When you're young. And there's time. To forget the past. You don't think that you will. But you do.
                     But I know that I don't have time enough. And I'll never get over losing you.

… I've been cold. I've been hungry. But not for awhile. I guess most of my dreams have come true.

                    With it all here around me.  No peace do I find. 'Cause I'll never get over losing you.

                                                       No, I'll never get over losing you. *
There are places I'll remember. All my life though some have changed. Some forever not for better.

         Some have gone and some remain. All these places had their moments. With lovers and friends 

         I still can recall.  Some are dead and some are living.  In my life I've loved them all.

But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one compares with you. And these memories lose their meaning,

           when I think of love as something new. Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and                             things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life I love you more.**​

Night Skies

I am he as you are he, as you are me and we are altogether

​

One, two, three.  I am he as you are he, as you are me and we are all together.   See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.   I'm crying.   Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.   Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday.   Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.

 I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob.   Mister City policeman sitting pretty little policemen in a row.   See how they fly  like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run.  I'm crying, I'm crying.  I'm crying, I'm crying.

Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye.   Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess.   Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down.   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.   I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob.

Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun If the sun don't come, you get a tan from standing in the English rain.

I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.   I am the walrus, goo-goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob.
Expert textpert choking smokers.  Don't you think the joker laughs at you?   See how they smile like pigs in a sty, see how they snied.   I'm crying.   Semolina pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower.   Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna.
Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar-Allan-Poe.   I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.   I am the walrus,

goo-goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob.   Goo goo g'joob, g'goo goo g'joob, g'goo...  Here they areThe Beatles!
