Average song rating Mostly dismissed as a stupid mistake of a song, but I will maintain to the grave that this is one of Paul McCartney's most amazing achievements. Listen to the doggone song! The melody is as simple and beautiful as "Here There and Everywhere". Paul's sensitive falsetto is flawless and it sounds like he is singing from his very soul, you can hear pain in his voice. Paul has spent most of his musical career openly admiring and imitating the styles of many black artists (Little Richard, Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Marvin Gaye, Fats Domino, Prince, Michael Jackson). This is the only time you can say that Paul succeeds in actually sounding like a black man. A wonderful song, try to listen to it without the MJ stigma. Bruce Beatlefan June 2, 2006

Lyrics

There is a pain, inside my heart,
You mean so much to me,
Girl, I love you,
Girl, I love you so bad.

And if you leave, my pain will go,
But that's no good to me.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.

Well, it feels so good,
Sometimes it feels so bad,
This is worse than anything I've ever had.

There was a pain, but now you're here,
And I don't fear a thing.
Girl, I love you,
Yes, I love you so bad.
And she said:
" boy, I love you,
Boy, I love you so bad."

(I love) girl, I love you,
(I love) girl, I love you so bad. (I love, I love)

Well, it feels so good,
Sometimes it feels so bad,
Mm, this is worse than anything I've ever had.

There was a pain, but now you're near,
And I don't fear a thing. (I love)
Girl, I love you, (I love)
Girl, I love you so bad. (I love, I love)
And she said: (I love)
"boy, I love you, (I love)
Boy, I love you so bad."

Bad, bad, ooh-yeah.

(I love) girl, I love you,
(I love) girl, I love you.

Mm-mm-mm.
