Paul's lyrics from Here Today reminds me of Shakespeare's Sonnet 18 in a way that it immortalizes a loved one and the constancy of affection:
"And if I say I really loved you and was glad you came along
When you were here today
For you were in my song"
Sonnet 18 in modern English:
"And you will never die, as you will live on in my enduring poetry.
As long as there are people still alive to read poems this sonnet will live, and you will live in it."
