I need a stronger slur for these two
“the time has come the walrus said
for you and me to stay in bed again
it’ll be just like starting over”
which in the final version of the song (recorded in october 1980) was changed to the section we all know is a clear reference to paul:
“it’s time to spread our wings and fly
don’t let another day go by, my love
it’ll be just like starting over”
yeah there’s no heterosexual explanation for that. especially since ‘another day’ was one of the songs referenced about paul in how do you sleep?. and absolutely mad that allegedly paul and john were making plans to record together in december of 1980 that got pushed back to the new year - which, if true, they likely were already speaking (excitedly) about these plans by october 1980. not to mention that john himself said that the song was written with his old friends from the 60s in mind….

Absolutely feral that the casettes Lennon recorded before he passed titled "For Paul (McCartney)", not knowing whether he'll ever give it to him or if it will ever be discovered, contain demos of songs that literally said
"And now and then, if we must start again, we will know for sure that I will love you"
and
"if I make it through, It's all because of you"
and
"Can we really live without each other? Where did we lose the touch that seemed to mean so much?"
and
"Seems that all I really was doing, was waiting for you"
and
"Now and then, I miss you - I want you to be there for me, always to return to me"

“What were the Beatles really like? She’s asked this every day. “Very irreverent, very flirty,” she says, “just like my own boys growing up. That John Lennon was a very naughty boy. He preferred men. He was very shy with women, you know, trying to get confidence in himself with that naughty schoolboy humour, that catch-the-girl, kiss-the-girl thing. If you came on as a siren, he’d run a mile.””
