Something
by George Harrison – The Beatles
“ Something ” is a song by the English rock band The Beatles from their 1969 album Abbey Road. It was written by George Harrison, the band’s lead guitarist. Together with his second contribution to Abbey Road, “Here Comes the Sun”, it is widely viewed by music historians as having marked Harrison’s ascendancy as a composer to the level of the Beatles’ principal songwriters, John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Two weeks after the album’s release, the song was issued on a double A-side single, coupled with “Come Together”, making it the first Harrison composition to become a Beatles A-side. The pairing was also the first time in the United Kingdom that the Beatles issued a single containing tracks already available on an album.
Lyrics
Something
Something in the way she moves
Attracts me like no other lover
Something in the way she woos me
I don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
Somewhere in her smile she knows
That I don’t need no other lover
Something in her style that shows me
I don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
You’re asking me will my love grow
I don’t know, I don’t know
You stick around, now it may show
I don’t know, I don’t know
Something in the way she knows
And all I have to do is think of her
Something in the things she shows me
I don’t want to leave her now
You know I believe and how
Songwriters: George Harrison
