From Give My Regards to Broadstreet (1984) by Paul McCartney

No More Lonely Nights (5:14)

I can wait another day until I call you, mm-mm,
You've only got my heart on a string
And ev'rything a'flutter.

But another lonely night (and another, and another)
Might take forever. (and another, nother)
We've only got each other to blame,
It's all the same to me, love.
'Cause I know what I feel to be right.

No more lonely nights, never be another,
No more lonely nights.
You're my guiding light,
Day or night I'm always there.

And I won't go away until you tell me so,
No, I'll never go away.

Yes I know (I know)
What I feel (I feel)
To be right. (to be right)

No more lonely nights, never be another,
No more lonely nights.
You're my guiding light,
Day or night I'm always there.

And I won't go away until you tell me so,
No, I'll never go away.

No more lonely nights, no, no.

Good Day Sunshine / Corridor Music (2:33)

Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine.

I need to laugh,
And when the sun is out,
I've got something I can laugh about.

I feel good
In a special way,
I'm in love and it's a sunny day.

Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine.

We take a walk,
The sun is shining down,
Burns my feet as I touch the ground.

Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine.

Then we lie
Beneath a shady tree,
I love her and she's loving me.

She feels good, (she feels good)
She knows she's looking fine,
I'm so proud to know that she is mine.

Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine.

Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine.

Good day sunshine, good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine, good day sunshine,
Good day sunshine, good day sunshine.

Yesterday (1:42)

Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly,
I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

Here, There and Everywhere (1:43)

To lead a better life
I need my love of my own.

Here,
Making each day of the year,
Changing my life with a wave of her hand;
Nobody can
Deny that there's something there.

I want her ev'rywhere
And if she's beside me I know I need never care.
But to love her is to meet her

Ev'rywhere,
Knowing that love is to share,
Each one believing that love never dies,
Watching her eyes
And hoping I'm always there.

I will be here, there and ev'rywhere.
Here, there and ev'rywhere

Wanderlust (4:06)

Light out wanderlust,
Head us out to sea.
Captain says there'll be a bust,
This one's not for me.

Take us from the dark,
Out where we can see.
Captain's out to make his mark,
This one's not to be.

Light out wanderlust,
Help us to be free.
Light out wanderlust,
Do it just for me, wanderlust.

Captain's out to make his mark,
This one's not to be.

Oh, where did I go wrong, my love?
What petty crime was I found guilty of?
What better time to find a brand new day?
Oh, wanderlust away.

Light out wanderlust,
Help us to be free.
Light out wanderlust,
Do it just for me, wanderlust.

Captain says there'll be a bust,
This one's not for me.

Light out wanderlust
(oh, where did I go wrong, my love?)
Head us out to sea
(what petty crime was I found guilty of?)
Captain says there'll be a bust
(what better time to find a brand new day?)
This one's not for me
(oh, wanderlust away)

Dropping a line,
Maybe this time
It's wanderlust for me.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Ooh, ooh, ooh.

Ballroom Dancing (4:50)

Well, I used to smile when I was a pup,
Sailing down the nile in china cup,
With the recipe for a lovely day
Sticking out my back pocket.

That's it, kids!

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight,
We used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom.

Ballroom dancing, made a man of me,
One, two, three, four,
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv
I got what I got from ballroom dancing.
Big b.d.

Here we go!

Well, I used to fly when I was a kid,
And I didn't cry if it hurt a bit,
On a carpet ride to a foreign land
At the time of davy crockett.

Wave the sword!

But it wasn't always such a pretty sight,
We used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom.

Ballroom dancing, made a man of me,
One, two, three, four,
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv
I got quite a lot from ballroom dancing.
Big b.d.

Well, the kids have flown to a better life
And the boy's a man and the girl's a wife
And the summertime never seems to last
When you're riding on a rocket.

But, but it wasn't always such a pretty sight,
Mm, we used to fight like cats and dogs
Till me made it up in the ballroom.

Ballroom dancing, made a man of me,
One and a-two and a-three and a-four,
I just plain adore your
Ballroom dancing, seen it on tv
I got what I got from ballroom dancing.
Big B.D.

Oh!

Silly Love Songs (Reprise) (5:27)

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs,
But I look around me and I see it isn't so.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,
What's wrong with that?
I'd like to know, 'cause here I go again.

I love you,
I love you,

I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me
Say, can't you see?
Ah, she gave me all, she gave it all to me,
Say, can't you see?
What's wrong with that?
I need to know,
'Cause here I go again.

I love you,
I love you.

Love doesn't come in a minute,
Sometimes it doesn't come at all.
I only know that when I'm in it,
It isn't silly, (doo doo doo)
No, it isn't silly, (doo doo doo)
Love isn't silly at all.
(doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, oh)

I love you,
I love you.

(L) I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me,
(P) I love you,
(L) say can't you see?
(L) ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me,
(P) I love you,
(L) say can't you see?
(L) I, I can't explain, the feeling's plain to me,
(P) how can I tell you about my loved one?
(P) I love you,
(L) say can't you see?
(L) ah, he gave me more, he gave it all to me,
(P) how can I tell you about my loved one?
(P) I love you,.

L. Say can't you see?.

You'd think that people would have had enough of silly love songs,
But I look around me and I see it isn't so, oh no.
Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs,
And what's wrong with that?

Not Such a Bad Boy (3:28)

- "Yeah, er...should we try "not such a bad boy?"
- "Do we have to?"
- "Yeah, this time, alright, one, two, three, four!"


I laughed at the teachers who taught in my school,
They kept one armed bandits in the swimming pool.
They don't understand me, but they never will,
And if was there, I'd be telling them still:

I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more,
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more,

I followed the leader into her tent,
But nobody told me that she owed some rent.
She wanted to love me, I wanted to go.
But she taught me things that I needed to know, you know, you know.

I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more,
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more.

Come on, boys!
Ow!

Oh yeah, she wanted to love me, I wanted to go.
Well, she taught me things that I needed to know, she know, she know.

I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more,
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more.

I talked to my lawyer, he picked up my bail.
Won't someone get me out of this lousy jail?
We're both in agreement that crime never pays,
And I should be out in a couple of days, hey!

I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more,
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more.

I'm not such a bad boy no more, (no more, no more)
I'm not such a bad boy no more, no more, no more

No more, no more, no more.

Ow!

So Bad (3:24)

There is a pain, inside my heart,
You mean so much to me,
Girl, I love you,
Girl, I love you so bad.

And if you leave, my pain will go,
But that's no good to me.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.

Well, it feels so good,
Sometimes it feels so bad,
This is worse than anything I've ever had.

There was a pain, but now you're here,
And I don't fear a thing.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.
And she said:
" boy, I love you,
Boy, I love you so bad."

(I love) girl, I love you,
(I love) girl, I love you so bad. (I love, I love)

Well, it feels so good,
Sometimes it feels so bad,
Mm, this is worse than anything I've ever had.

There was a pain, but now you're near,
And I don't fear a thing. (I love)
Girl, I love you, (I love)
Girl, I love you so bad. (I love, I love)
And she said: (I love)
"boy, I love you, (I love)
Boy, I love you so bad."

Bad, bad, ooh-yeah.

(I love) girl, I love you,
(I love) girl, I love you.

Mm-mm-mm.

No Values / No More Lonely Nights (4:12)

Two, a one, two, three, four.

Oh, I hear them telling me that you're selling off the furniture,
Keep my personalised autographs.
You might as well go all the way and sell your granny to the zoo.

And while you're at it, may I go to my psychiatrist ?
He's making money out of making me laugh.
But I don't mind,
I wish that I could say the same about you, oh.

It seems to me that you've still got no values,
Oh, you know, you're not so hot, no values,
Yeah, you know, you've got a lot but no values,
And I'll be glad if you went away again.
No values, yeah,
No values,
No values at all.

Oh, the city shark is at the dark end of the alleyway,
Pays your money and you takes a choice.
The artful dodger says he wants to pick a pocket or two.
Oh, but you, you've taken up a place in high society,
A personal friend of messrs rolls and royce,
Got them all convinced
That everything you say to them is true, oh.

But it seems to me that you've still got no values,
Well, you know, you're not so hot, no values,
Well, you've got a lot, but no values,
And I'd be glad if you went away again.
No values,
No values,
No values at all.

Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
Ah-ah-ah-oh-oh-oh,
Oh-oh-oh-oh.

I like your wife's smile, I like her car,
If I had your lifestyle, I wouldn't go far wrong,
On the waters of life you row your boat,
Into the strongest tide that you can find.

On the darkest of nights, (on the darkest of nights)
We were two of a kind. (we were two of a kind)
We went through it all before the tide went out
And left us stranded on the shore. (on the shore)
How was I to know?
How was I to know?

Well, you ain't got no values,
Hey, you know, you think you're hot, no values,
Oh, you know, you've got a lot, but no values,
And I'd be glad if you went away again.
No values, yeah,
No values, yeah,
No values at all.

Oh!

- "Finish it this time!"

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Ooh -


- "Okay, don't do it! Don't do it! Er...sorry, my fault."

- "Let's have a break, a nice cup of tea or something."

For No One (2:12)

Your day breaks,
Your mind aches,
You find that all her words of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you.

She wakes up,
She makes up,
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry;
She no longer needs you.

And in her eyes you see nothing,
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one.
A love that should have lasted years.

You want her,
You need her,
And yet you don't believe her when she says her love is dead;
You think she needs you.

And in her eyes you see nothing,
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one.
A love that should have lasted years.

You stay home,
She goes out,
She says that long ago she knew someone but now he's gone;
She doesn't need him.

Your day breaks,
Your mind aches,
There will be times when all the things she said will fill your head,
You won't forget her.

And in her eyes you see nothing,
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one.
A love that should have lasted years.

Mm-mm.

Eleanor Rigby / Eleanor's Dream (9:11)

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor rigby,
Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been,
Lives in a dream.
Waits at the window,
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door,
Who is it for?

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?

Father mckenzie,
Writing the words to a sermon that no one will hear,
No one comes near.
Look at him working,
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there,
What does he care?

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor rigby,
Died in the church and was buried along with her name.
Nobody came.
Father mckenzie,
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave,
No one was saved.

All the lonely people,
(Ah, look at all the lonely people!)
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
(Ah, look at all the lonely people!)
Where do they all belong?





Wiping the dirt from his hands
As he walks from the grave,
No one was saved.

All the lonely people,
Where do they all come from?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!

The Long and Winding Road (3:56)

The long and winding road,
That leads to your door,
Will never disappear,
I've seen that road before, oh, oh.
It always leads me here,
Lead me to your door.

Many times I've been alone,
And many times I've cried.
Anyway you'll never know
The many ways I've tried

But still they lead me back
To the long and winding road,
You left me standing here,
A long, long time ago, oh.
Don't keep me waiting here.
Lead me to your door.

Oh - mm.

The wild and windy night,
That the rain washed away,
Has left a pool of tears,
Crying for the day, mm-mm.
Don't leave me waiting here,
Let me know the way.
