Love You To
The Beatles · The Beatles Stereo Box Set [2009]
I turn around, it's past
You don't get time to hang a sign on me
Love me while you can
Before I'm a dead old man
A life time is so short
A new one can't be bought
But what you've got means such a lot to me
Make love all day long
Make love singing songs
Make love all day long
Make love singing songs
There's people standing round
Who'll screw you in the ground
They'll fill you in with all their sins, you'll see
I'll make love to you
If you want me to
Love You To

The song's driving rhythm and Harrison's distinctive vocal delivery mark a departure from their earlier harmonies, showcasing a new musical direction that influenced countless artists across genres. As a key component of their discography, 'Love You To' remains a testament to The Beatles' willingness to explore global sounds and push the boundaries of studio production during a transformative era in music history.
