Producer: George Harrison Phil Spector

All alone in this world am I
Not a care for this world have I
Only you keep my eyes open wide
Yes it's true
I live for you

Not a thing in this world do I own
Only sadness from all that is grown
In this darkness, I wait for the day
Yes it's true
I live for you

Through many years I wait
Through many tears I wait

All this time my thoughts return to you
Give my love, that is all I can do
Wait in line 'til I feel you inside
Yes it's true
I live for you

Through many years I wait
Through many tears I wait

All this time my thoughts return to you
Give my love, that is all I can do
Wait in line 'til I feel you inside
Yes it's true
I live for you

If George Harrison were merely remembered for his involvement in The Beatles, his legacy would be solidified as one of rock’s greatest names. Along with staging the world’s first benefit concert where major artists performed together for humanitarian relief, introducing pop culture to classical Indian music and gaining three #1 singles as a solo artist, he was also a film producer and an avid gardener.

In 1957, he met a young Paul McCartney on a bus they both took to school. McCartney then introduced him to John Lennon to audition for his skiffle group, the Quarrymen. Lennon originally rejected Harrison as he thought he was too young to be the band, having just turned 15. Harrison eventually impressed Lennon with his guitar skills and was accepted as a member of the group.

During his time with The Beatles, Harrison was the lead guitarist, one of the singers, and contributed many songs such as “Taxman,” “Within You Without You,” “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” “Here Comes the Sun” and “Something.”
