You Like Me Too Much

George Harrison

Another by Harrison, this was written and recorded before the filming began, and wasn't used in the movie, but rather delegated to the B-side on the British version. Another love relationship song, whereby George is saying that although he has been rejected by the girl, she will be back because she loves him too much not to return. Paul McCartney and George Martin had a cool trick that they had developed whereby they both sit at the same piano and play it at the same time, although different parts of the song. This trick was used here. This was definitely taking a duet like "Heart and Soul," to a much higher level! I think it's one of Harrison's best from this period, and was recorded on February 17, 1965.

Though you're gone away this morning,

You'll be back again tonight

Telling me there'll be no next time,

If I just don't treat you right

You'll never leave me and you know it's true,

'Cause you like me too much and I like you

You've tried before to leave me, but you haven't got the nerve

To walk out and make me lonely, which is all that I deserve

You'll never leave me and you know it's true,

'Cause you like me too much and I like you, I really do

And it's nice when you believe me, if you leave me

I will follow you and bring you back where you belong

'Cause I couldn't really stand it, I'd admit that I was wrong

I wouldn't let you leave me 'cause it's true,

'Cause you like me too much and I like you

'Cause you like me too much and I like you, I really do

And it's nice when you believe me, if you leave me

I will follow you and bring you back where you belong

'Cause I couldn't really stand it, I'd admit that I was wrong

I wouldn't let you leave me 'cause it's true,

'Cause you like me too much and I like you

'Cause you like me too much and I like you
