Average song rating Finally a song that does make any sense on the album. Why didn't Paul pay attention to all of his songs on this album? Besides this song, there's just a handful of songs that are recorded with some attention and love. Opening with promises of a good song. Paul starts singing at 0.10 and his rhythm guitar brings in the tension. Nice. Decent drumming and no overwhelming bass, but pleasant enough. Is that a double tracked voice on 'Resting my mind' at 1.29? Paul forgets to add another verse or bridge. Reason why the song is too short to come to full bloom. Also played at the unplugged session in 1991.

Average song rating "Maybe I'm Amazed" copped all the attention at the time, but this song actually has aged better. There is a strong sense in the lyrics of this song of a kind of despair and directionlessness without Linda that we don't often get from Paul. The tightly harmonized version of this song on Paul's Unplugged CD is superb and well worth a listen. Bruce Beatlefan November 17, 2008

Lyrics

Every night I just wanna go out, get out of my head
every day I don't want to get up, get out of my bed
every night I want to play out
and every day I want to do ooh ooh oh oh
but tonight I just want to stay in
and be with you,
and be with you.

Ooh ...
Ooh ...
every day I lean on a lamp post, I'm wasting my time
every night I lay on a pillow, I'm resting my mind
every morning brings a new day
every night that day is through ooh ooh oh oh
but tonight I just want to stay in
and be with you,
and be with you.
Ooh ...
Ooh ...
Believe me mama ooh ...
Ooh ...
