It's Only Love (Beatles/Lennon 1965)

I think this song, and John Lennon, were my first love.
This song came out in 1965, on the Beatles' "Rubber Soul" album.
I was born in 1965 and first heard this song in 1980.

I used to think John was so subtly sensitive.
He was---pre-Yoko's left-wing politics, and then while separated from her.

I get high when I see you go by,
My oh my,
When you sigh, my, my inside just flies,
Butterflies,
Why am I so shy when I'm beside you?
It's only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love and that is all,
But it's so hard loving you.
Is it right that you and I should fight
Every night?
Just the sight of you makes night-time bright,
Very bright.
Haven't I the right to make it up, girl?
It's only love and that is all,
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love and that is all,
But it's so hard loving you.
Yes, it's so hard loving you...
