1964

Let it all out, let it all out

You don't have to think your heart is made of steel

"C'mere, you idiot." Paul ran over to John, jumping into his open arms with a giggle. "I love you, ya know that?"

"I love you too."

Come away now, from your own doubt

Like a flower of hope that's growing in a field,

You will heal

The day it happened was just like any other. "Hey Paulie?"

"Yeah, Johnny Boy?"

"Have you ever kissed a bloke?" He blinked, confused. "Uh, no."

"You want to?"

Although the road has changed you

And the world has often failed you

You've gotta carry on and show them you're strong

"What?" No way his crush had just said that, he must be hearing things. John sighed, and pulled him over by his shirt to kiss him. Nope, definitely not hearing things.

You've gotta bury what is past and gone

Some days will be worse than others

But you've gotta find another way

He loved Paul. He loved his smooth hair, the way he could sing and play guitar, the fact that he was ticklish, and how cute his face was. "You know, you're adorable, Macca."

"I know."

Through pain and fear,

Or rain and tears,

We will hold on to the light

"But Joooooohnnnnn, I don't wanna go to beddd," Paul whined. "Too bad, you're drunk and need rest."

"Guess what? You're sexy."

"Yeah, okay. I know I am."

We'll chase the dawn that waits for us beyond the darkest sky

Keep following that distant star

Never walk away from who you are

"Stop snogging while we're recording!" Ringo facepalmed. "Make us!" They yelled. "Queers," muttered George. "Oh yeah, like you aren't one as well."

Never forget that your future's waiting up ahead

As seasons change and rearrange

And the sands of time descend

"I don't know what I'm doing!" John yelled, starting to slip on the ice skates. "Grab my hand, love." Paul reached out for it. "You're doing great!"

"Oh shut up."

As all your hope starts vanishing you'll always have a friend

In brightest day or darkest night

1980

Paul sobbed as he held John's cold hand. Memories flew by in his head as he sniffed. He tearfully touched his chest where one of the bullets had entered.

"Forever love..."

Even if we have to say goodbye

You'll be alright

I will always and forever be by your side
