Lyrics:
The long and winding road that leads to your door
Here comes the sun it's alright people shout for more
But were you trying to deceive telling me
All you need is love to succeed
Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday
All you need is love so they say

Across the universe one after nine 'o' nine
I got a feeling for you blue and I feel fine
I tried so hard to make believe that I'd see
All you need is love to succeed
Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday
All you need is love so they say
