When I'm 64

 

It's been a hard day's night
And I've working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you
I find the thing that you do
Will make me feel alright

When I'm home
Everything seems to be right
When I'm home
Feeling you hold me tight, tight, yeah

You know I work all day
To get you money to buy you things
And it's worth it just to hear you say
You're gonna give me everything

So why I love to come home
Cos' when I get you alone
You know I feel okay

When I'm home
Everything seems to be right
When I'm home
Feeling you hold me tight, tight, yeah

It's been a hard day's night
And I've working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you
I find the thing that you do
Will make me feel alright
You know I feel alright
You know I feel alright
