    I know it's true
    It's all because of you
    And if I make it through
    It's all because of you
    And now and then
    If we must start again

    I don't want to lose you
    Oh,no,no,no
    Lose you or abuse you
    Oh,no,no,no

    But if you have to go away
    If you have to go
    Do,do,do,do,do,do
    Now and then
    I miss you
    Oh, now and then
    I want to know you'll talk to me
    I know return to me
    I know it's true
    It's all because of you
    And if you go away
    I know you'll never stay
    I don't want to lose you

    Now and then is probably the best example of how the Lennon-McCartney partnership worked. One would write a basic sketch of a song and the other would refine it with there own idea’s. Hey Jude is probably the next best example of this imo (of course with the roles being reversed.)

      I think Paul took it out to change the whole meaning of the song.. to relate to what he's feeling missing being in the beatles. And john obviously wrote this as a love song..
      Messed up to take John's song and take anything out of it.... the original is already perfect... it really adds to the emotion and capturing a place and time.

      @@lillydamil1139 Your explanation is totally right on. A Lennon love song filled with angst and delicacy was transformed into a "We Miss the Beatles" finale. Paul did that. And still, there was only a single demo to work from. If Lennon continued to polish the vocals his range would have been perfect, as every Beatles song sounded.

    It seems to me that this demo is NOT the one that Paul received. Here, in the chorus, John flubs the final lines, "I want you to be there for me / Always to return to me", whereas on the Beatles' official version, the lines are sung properly. This wouldn't surprise me given that there's also two versions of 'Real Love' -- In that song, the opening line in the Lennon Anthology demo says "Gone like some forgotten dream" while The Beatles' release has it as "Lost like some forgotten dream".
    That, or else AI was used more than we were told and the chorus was indeed generated by this so-called AI.

    John's voice in all natural and subtle harmonization. Original version is far better than the stupid shit cooked in studios for commercial reasons.

      original is better. i love honestly both. but the one ringo and Paul did was magical too. they changed the context of the song doing now and then. George and john are the then forever young and forever in hearts, paul and ringo are the now. they grew old, remorseful and missing their buddies. its still beautiful and makes me cry for both. the original is magical and i absolutely love where john does that whole i don't wanna lose you part. its perfect to me.

      @@thelilyfarrell What you say is very clever and I thank you. I hope original version should be available on record, or is it, but I don't know.
