Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I love you more
[Outro: John Lennon]
In my life, I love you more

He did have a very warm side to him really, which he didn’t like to show too much in case he got rejected.

It was sparked by a journalist and writer in England made after [John’s book] ‘In His Own Write’ came out. He said to me ‘Why don’t you put some of the ways you write in the book in the songs?’ or ‘Why don’t you put something about your childhood into the songs?
