Never Learn Not to Love

[rich]

and something Charlie missed--the beautiful segue of Helter Skelter
into Long Long Long--one of Harrison's most haunting songs--one of
those songs where such simple lyrics are so heightened by lets face it
a strange stew of sounds and impressions--beatles records (the white
album in particular) have such wonderful seques--like Pynchon's
radical shifting of moods in his writings--fabulous stuff if u can
pull it off

It's been a long long long time,
How could I ever have lost you
When I loved you.

It took a long long long time
Now I'm so happy I found you
How I love you

So many tears I was searching,
So many tears I was wasting, oh. Oh--

Now I can see you, be you
How can I ever misplace you
How I want you
Oh I love you
Your know that I need you.
Ooh I love you.
