The Beatles
Strawberry Fields Forever

1.- Read the complete lyrics of this song from The Beatles

Let me take you down

´Cause I´m going to
Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

Living is easy with eyes closed

Misunderstanding all you see
It´s getting hard to be someone
But it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me

Let me take you down

´Cause I´m going to
Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

No one I think is in my tree

I mean it must be high or low
That i you can't you know tune in
But it's all right
That is I think it's not too bad

Let me take you down

´Cause I´m going to

Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

Always, no, sometimes, think it's me

But you know I know when it's a dream
I think, er, no I mean, er, yes
But it's all so wrong
That is I think I disagree

Let me take you down

´Cause I´m going to
Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
