I've been thinking now for a long time
How to go my own separate way
It's a shame to think about yesterday
It's a shame
A shame
A shame

We've been running round in our present state
Hoping help would come from above
But even angels there made the same mistakes
In love
In love
In love
In love

Now that we are lonely
Life seems to get hard
Alone what a word - lonely
Alone it makes me cry
Thought-train set in motion
Wheels in and around
Express our deep emotion
Tracks up, then it cracks down

We've been running round in our present state
Hoping help would come from above
But even angels there made the same mistakes
In love
In love
In love
In love

Peter Michael McCartney (born January 7, 1944) is perhaps best known for being Paul McCartney’s younger brother—this explains his use of the pseudonym, “Mike McGear,” to differentiate himself from his world-famous sibling.

He is a British performance artist and music photographer. Among his various aliases, Beatles manager Brian Epstein also gave him the nickname “Flash Harry,” due to his constant use of a flash camera in the 1960s.
