Definitely

Definitely, these eyes used to charm me away,
they made me fall in love so quickly;
no, I didn't mind anyway!


Memories are as lasting as gold can really be,
there are no tears without goodbye;
now, I ask you to reconsider me!


You shouldn't have to go,
I'm too sure you would stay:
you can live in my song; 
o how I would shout my hooray!


Definitely, I am that man who loves to say...
how you need his arms to dream away;
oh, just let him take you away!


You shouldn't have to go,
I'm too sure you would stay:
you can live in my song;
o how I would shout my hooray!

Didn't know John was sponsoring a Beatlemania contest, but I reread this after seeing your note and it flows so well with the melody of "Yesterday." Great work, Andrew, and best wishes for success in the contest. Love, Carolyn
