It's Only Love

Lennon/McCartney

Lyrics:
I get high when I see you go by, my oh my
When you sigh my inside just flies, butterflies
why am I so shy when I'm beside you

It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you

Is it right that you and I should fight, every night
just the sight of you makes nighttime bright, very bright
haven't I the right to make up girl

It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do
It's only love and that is all
But it's so hard loving you
Yes it's so hard loving you
Loving you

What Goes On? Anomalies

0:08 * NEW *
John counts in "1,2". The "one" sounds like "hum".

0:41
LP - word "only" loses double tracking. Intentional, to hide an error, as on the CD this has been left in and the timing of "only" is out of place. Mono version also loses double track to correct this problem.

1:03-1:06 * NEW *
John puts a bit too much emphasis on the word "bright" so it sounds like "bbrright" and he lets let's out a slight laugh up until he sings "very bright.". Also lead guitar fill hear is flubbed.

Note: I did not write or compile these anomalies. Please don't email me with new anomalies and please read the WGO Info page.
