“Here Comes The Sun” by The Beatles

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun and I say it’s all right

Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winterLittle darling, it feels like years since it’s been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun And I say it’s all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces, Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting, Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun, And I say it’s all right
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun

It’s all right, it’s all right

The poem/song “Here Comes The Sun” by The Beatles tried to express about being in a depressed state of mind and slowly starting to feel happiness once more. My 8th grade year I was very heartbroken over my parents divorce. I was always gloomy or bitter and never cheerful. Overtime, I grew more and more joyful.

“Ob-La-Di,Ob-La-Da” by the Beatles

Desmond has a barrow in the market place, Molly is the singer in a band, Desmond says to Molly, Girl, I like your face, And Molly says this as she takes him by the hand

Ob-la-di,ob-la-da life goes on ,bra La-la how their life goes on, Ob-la-di ,ob-la-da life goes on bra, La-la how their life goes on

Desmond takes a trolley to the jeweler’s store, Buys a twenty carat golden ring
Takes it back to Molly waiting at the door, And as he gives it to her she begins to sing

Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on, bra La-la how their life goes on, Ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on, bra La-la how their life goes on

In a couple of years they have built A home sweet home, With a couple of kids running in the yard Of Desmond and Molly Jones

Happy ever after in the market place Desmond lets the children lend a hand
Molly stays at home and does her pretty face, And in the evening she still sings it with the band

ob-la-di , ob-la-da life goes on ,bra La-la how their life goes on, ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on, bra La-la how their life goes on

In a couple of years they have built A home sweet home With a couple of kids running in the yardOf Desmond and Molly Jones

happy ever after in the market place Molly lets the children lend a hand
Desmond stays at home and does his pretty face And in the evening she’s a singer with the band

ob-la-di, ob-la-da life goes on, bra La-la how their life goes on
Yeah, ob-la-di ob-la-da life goes on, bra La-la how their life goes on
And if you want some fun,
take ob-la-di ob-la-da

“Let It be” by The Beatles

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me, Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

And in my hour of darkness, She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be, Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be

And when the broken-hearted people, Living in the world agree, There will be an answer, Let it be

For though they may be parted there is still a chance that they will see,
There will be an answer, Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be, there will be an answer, Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be, Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be

And when the night is cloudy, There is still a light that shines on me, Shine until tomorrow, Let it be

I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me, Speaking words of wisdom, Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be, There will be an answer, Let it be

Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be, Whisper words of wisdom,Let it be
