Hi Blackmath -

^^ You're welcome !

"There is one love, I should never have crossed" - to me that means that he had a love, he did bad things, and as a consequence he no longer has that love, and it hurts him badly, and he realizes it.

Also for the "leave you flat" - using the word "flat" sometimes connotes something that happens very quickly, like "you can count on me, Mom,  I'll be back from the store with the milk in no time flat". So maybe John was also saying he would leave her very quickly.

BTW - these are just one guy's interpretation ... I think John's choice of word imagery was probably well calculated to be somewhat unclear - maybe more naturally in the early days, but certainly more so in the later days ("Come Together" is a good example in my mind). I think he was toying with us!!

Anyway, more learned and esteemed members of this forum can help here too. Especially Harihead, she is a writer and editor!!

I'm not sure if this is the part you mean, but I think he says "I say girl ... yeah now girl...". Does it sound like this is the part you are referring to?

By the way, don't worry about other people not answering recently - folks are very helpful on this forum, I'm probably by coincidence the first one to see your posts after you post them - I'm sure they are ready and willing to help if your post is not answered quickly, or if I stumble  

Yes that's the part. But the thing is I hear something like "you're not fine" haha. I guess there's something wrong with my ears.

Is it the part right before he says "Bye bye baby bye bye"? If so, I think he is saying "I say bye!", just before that. Maybe put a link to the song and say what time it is (or find a youtube of the song). If it's worth it!

i still don't understand what he says. anyway. thank you.
here's a new question.

Listen to me one more time
How can I get through
Can't you try to see that I'm
Trying to get to you

what does get through and get to you mean?

Trying to get to you

what does get through and get to you mean?

"get through"= "make you understand."
"trying to get to you" = "trying to make you understand" or "trying to show you what I mean."

It's another Jane Asher song, in all probability: think of "I'm Looking Through You,"  for example.
