Interesting Real Love Demo
youtube
In the middle of the song, John suddenly switched up to ‘Isolation’ melody, which has this original lyrics,
I don't expect you to understand
After you've caused so much pain
But then again, you're not to blame
You're just a human, a victim of the insane
I think these lyrics are directed to Paul, because it pretty much summed up his feelings for him back then. Very angry, but also very sorry for him. But then the interesting thing in this demo is, he changed the lyrics of ‘Isolation’ to this,
I don't expect you to understand
The kingdom of heaven is in your hand
I don’t expect you to wake up from your dream
Too late for crying now it seems
The ‘wake up from your dream’ part is definitely a reference to the whole beatles tales. Here’s a snippet of ‘God’ (a song from the same album as ‘Isolation’) lyrics,
And so, dear friends
You'll just have to carry on
The dream is over
As we know, Paul is the one who keeps pushing the idea of writing together to John, even years after the breakup. Or in other words, Paul is the one who doesn’t want to wake up from the dreams.
So yeah, anyway!! i just thought, the lyrics ‘The kingdom of heaven is in your hand’ being written for Paul is kinda insane.
