Titles

En 1999, John Lees y wooly Wolstenholme regrabaron en el CD Nexus el tema Titles, que grabaron por primera vez en 1975 en el LP Time Honoured Ghosts. La letra de la canción tiene la gracia de estar compuesta, casi en su totalidad, de títulos (y a veces fragnmentos) de canciones de The Beatles. En la versión de 1999 se añadió una última estrofa, así que será la versión que transcribiremos. Los títulos de The Beatles, en colores y negrita. Los fragmentos de letra, en color. Entre corchetes, las notas del editor...

The long and winding road
That leads to your door
Here comes the sun it's all right
People shout for more
But were you trying to deceive telling me [por "Tell me why"]
All you need is love to succeed

Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday [la letra es "something in the way she moves"]
All you need is love so they say

Across the universe
One after nine 'o' nine
I got a feeling for you blue
And I feel fine
I tried so hard to make believe that I'd see
All you need is love to succeed

Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday
All you need is love so they say

Imagine nowhere man
In my life's where you'd be
Band on the run can't buy you love and I agree [por Can't Buy me Love"]
It was a long and winding road
Before I'd see
The fool upon the hill was really me [por "The Fool on the Hill"]

Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday
All you need is love so they say
