There's A Place
Lennon/McCartney

 

Lyrics:
There, there's a place
where I can go
when I feel low
when I feel blue
And it's my mind
and there's time
When I'm alone
I think of you
the things you do
Go round my head
the things you've said

Like I love only you
In my mind there's no sorrow
Don't you know that it's so
There'll be no sad tomorrow
Don't you know that it's so

There, there's a place
where I can go
when I feel low
when I feel blue
And it's my mind
and there's time
When I'm alone
There's a place
There's a place 		Availability:

Notes:

Written by John & Paul, this song is about a place one can go, in his mind. Being both an introvert and extrovert, Lennon at times, to avoid the cruelty of life, could retreat into his imagination; that place of inner safety in his thoughts, dreams and memories. Its title inspiration came from "West Side Story," and "There's A Place For Us." (Somewhere)It was recorded on February 11, 1963.
