Because Lyrics



Lennon/McCartney


Because the world is round it turns me on
Because the world is round...aaaaaahhhhhh

Because the wind is high it blows my mind
Because the wind is high......aaaaaaaahhhh

Love is all, love is new
Love is all, love is you

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry
Because the sky is blue.......aaaaaaaahhhh

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh....

John Lennon got the idea for this when he heard Yoko to playing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" on the piano. He asked her to play it backwards, and came up with this based on what he heard.
Contains a 3 part harmony by John, Paul, and George that was overdubbed twice, creating a 9 part harmony.
Lennon said the arrangement was terrible, but McCartney and Harrison felt this was the best track on Abbey Road.
This was one of the first uses of a Moog synthesizer on any recording. Harrison had the instrument specially made, and did his best to figure it out.
