A request from the hospital of a popular Beatles tune.

Title: And I Love Her
Composer: John Lennon & Paul McCartney

This is a request of a visitor at Mayo Hospital. Many people still remember and enjoy the Beatles. This simple but stirring and gentle ballad showed for the first time the variance of what Lennon and McCartney could conjure up within the confines of this album called "Something New". They would be later known for their "highs and lows," "peaks and valleys" on their albums, such as the range of genres on the "White Album" (from "Helter Skelter" to "Blackbird" to "Honey Pie"). While the gentleness of "A Taste Of Honey" and "Till There Was You" from their first two albums were evidences of this, they resorted to cover songs to display the variance. With "And I Love Her" they display that they have this capability right in their own arsenal. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics:
I give her all my love
That's all I do
And if you saw my love
You'd love her too
I love her

She gives me everything
And tenderly
The kiss my lover brings
She brings to me
And I love her

A love like ours
Could never die
As long as I
Have you near me

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her

Bright are the stars that shine
Dark is the sky
I know this love of mine
Will never die
And I love her
