FOR NO ONE (By Lennon/McCartney, 1966. Sung by Paul).

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.
