[Verse 1]
Your day breaks
Your mind aches
You find that all her words of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you
She wakes up
She wakes up
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs you

[Chorus]
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

[Verse 2]
You want her
You need her
And yet you don't believe her when she says her love is dead
You think she needs you

[Chorus]
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

[Verse 3]
You stay home
She goes out
She says that long ago she knew someone, but no hes gone
She doesn't need him
Your day breaks
Your mind aches
There will be times when all the things you said will fill your head
You won't forget her

[Chorus]
And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

Paul McCartney

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
