Lyrics ▶︎

You say you will love me
If I have to go
You'll be thinking of me
Somehow I will know
Someday when I'm lonely
Wishing you weren't so far away
Then I will remember
Things we said today
You say you'll be mine, girl
'Til the end of time
These days such a kind girl
Seems so hard to find
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love, not a lot to say
Then we will remember
Things we said today, hey
Me, I'm just the lucky kind
Love to hear you say that love is luck
And though we may be blind
Love is here to stay and that's enough
To make you mine, girl
Be the only one
Love me all the time, girl
We'll go on and on
Someday when we're dreaming
Deep in love, not a lot to say
Then we will remember
Things we said today
Me, I'm just the lucky kind
Love to hear you say that love is luck
Though we may be blind
Love is here to stay and that's enough
To make you mine, girl
Be the only one
Love me all the time, girl
We'll go on and on

I love the sentimental, all-is-happy feeling of this song. Most of all, I love the harmonies. I thought it was John harmonising with Paul, and when they sang it live, I believe it was. However, I read something recently that said Paul double tracked his vocals. This gives the song a smooth, light feeling and, to be honest, the lyrics could be about anything. The song would still feel the same. It’s just a light, easy track.
