Your Simply Amazing Stuck in My Head Song of the Day

As promised yesterday your stuck in my head song of the day is The Beatles "Martha My Dear" and as much as I thought I would have to fudge this post this song actually was in my head for all of today. It is Thursday and I can't help but think of Hubby on days like this and so the lyrics touched me and stuck with me from yesterday until today, and probably for a bit more.

Martha my dear though I spend my days in conversation
Please
Remember me Martha my love
Don't forget me Martha my dear

Hold your head up you silly girl look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly Girl.

Take a good look around you
Take a good look you're bound to see
That you and me were meant to be for each other
Silly girl.

Hold your hand out you silly girl see what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl.

Martha my dear you have always been my inspiration
Please
Be good to me Martha my love
Don't forget me Martha my dear
.
The lyrics are so beautiful and anyone whose beloved is away and wonders if distance will dampen feelings can relate to the song. Too bad it was written for a dog, by Paul for his sheep dog Martha. (Easily the best song ever written about a dog- feel free to correct me if you know better) I'm totally in love with the "when you find yourself in the thick of it/help yourself to a bit of what is all around you, silly girl" line, I think its a good way to live life. Aw, Hubby would like this song :( ::sigh:: Anyway, as you probably know by the time of The White Album the Beatles hadn't been touring for years, or making videos, so this song doesn't have a proper video but here's one I like; pictures of Paul and Martha, his dear, while the song is playing. I think its cute but more importantly enjoy the song.

I must say they were quite a good little band.
