Inspirational Lyrics? (preferably Beatles)?

Posted by admin on March 3rd, 2010 and filed under beatles lyrics | 8 Comments »

Everyone in my class has been asked to start up some sort of project, to improve life around the area we live in. What I’ve decided to do, is mildly inspired by the Free Hugs campaign… Seeing as Juan Mann said that his idea was to put a smile on someone’s face, that what my idea is pretty much too. But I’m not brave enough to go out there and hug people, so I’ve though of something that just might make people smile, and they won’t even have to know it’s me. I’ve decided to write a new message on the sidewalk each day. This is going to cost me a fortune in chalk, but I think its worth it. Thing is, I need to find some happy/feel good/inspirational lyrics, and I’d prefer them to be Beatles, because 1. I adore the Beatles 2. Most people in my area will recognize Beatles lyrics…

I’ve already used the phrases "All you need is love" and "Nothing’s gonna change my world."

So, if you could suggest some of your favorite lyrics, or a short message that inspires you, etc, that kind of thing, I’d really appreciate it!

Honestly, and I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but on of my favorite lines is from the beginning of "I Am The Walrus"

"I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together"

I know that it was made up from two different acid trips, but I think it has a lot of good meaning…I really do feel that way about life and although I know The Beatles weren’t huge on Christianity, I interpret it as "he" being He, as in God, meaning God is in me and everyone else and all of us are the same, brothers and sisters, all here for the same reason.

This next one’s kind of different, but I just love it. It’s from "Hey Jude" and Paul says, "the movement you need is on your shoulder." I just think that’s beautiful. You should Wikipedia lots of their songs and sometimes they give the meanings of certain lyrics on there. Anyways, good luck and I hope this helps! :)

I’ll probably keep editing stuff in as I get the chance…I’d like to add that the songs "Here Comes The Sun" and "Because" both from the Abbey Road album have a lot of beautiful lines and are very inspirational.

    It’s been a hard day’s night, and I been working like a dog

    I should have known better with a girl like you

    If I fell in love with you would you promise to be true

    I give her all my love that’s all I do

    Tell me why you cried, and why you lied to me

    Can’t buy me love, love

    You say you will love me if I have to go

    I told you before, oh, you can’t do that

    Take these broken wings and learn to fly – or – Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
    ~ Beatles "Blackbird"

    You tell me it’s the institution, well you know, you better free your mind instead -or – Don’t you know it’s gonna be alright
    ~ Beatles "Revolution"

    Any part of "Let It Be" is great too

    Some people feel the rain, others just get wet.
    ~Bob Dylan

    Just because mountains inevitably lie beyond mountains doesn’t mean we should not climb.
    ~ Not sure

    (I know the last 2 were not Beatles but they are my favorite quotes)
