I was early to bed last night so I did not see Helen’s Song Lyric Sunday theme until this morning: Listen.
The Beatles classic was in my brain, ears, eyes, and on my tongue as my lips whispered the words, “let me whisper in your ear.”
This bit of boomer nostalgia is less than two minutes.
Lyrics: Do You Want to Know A Secret
You’ll never know how much I really love you
You’ll never know how much I really care
Listen do you want to know a secret
Do you promise not to tell woh woh woh closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I’m in love with you oo
I’ve known the secret for a week or two
Nobody knows just we two
Listen do you want to know a secret
Do you promise not to tell woh woh woh closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I’m in love with you ooooo
You’ll never know how much I really care
Listen do you want to know a secret
Do you promise not to tell woh woh woh closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I’m in love with you oo
I’ve known the secret for a week or two
Nobody knows just we two
Listen do you want to know a secret
Do you promise not to tell woh woh woh closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Say the words you long to hear
I’m in love with you ooooo
Songwriters: John Lennon / Paul Mccartney

Look both ways, but the music of your youth never goes away.
Mind the classical gaps.
Love it… first thing that came to mind.

The album cover montage is ***WOW***. Mom used to have an album with this song on it and remember thinking how dreamy George’s voice was on it as a kid. It’s weird but I just went to see who was actually singing it because all of these years thought it was Paul, but google says it was the first song George sang lead on.
