Strawberry Fields Forever

Let me take you down
cos I'm going to strawberry fields
nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
strawberry fields forever.


Living is easy with eyes closed
misunderstanding all you see
it's getting hard to be someone
but it all works out
it doesn't matter much to me.

No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
that is you can't you know tune in but it's all right
that is I think it's not too bad.

Always, no sometimes, think it's me
but you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a "Yes" but it's all wrong
that is I think I disagree.

(Lennon-McCartney)

Some songs are utterly senseless, like this one. (Don't get me wrong, I'm a Beatle fan.) But sometimes it's a thin line between inanity and profundity, I guess. It all depends on the experience or the moment when the song comes to mind. I came to La Trinidad Valley and left singing this song. Believe it or not, it was my first time in the country's famed strawberry fields!
