You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope some day you’ll join us, and the world will live as one.
(John The Great Winston Lennon)

May Pang on John: "He was always saying, 'I wonder what Paul is doing.' When John and I were together, and this is about a week or two before our relationship ended, I remember him saying, 'Do you think I should write with Paul again?' I said, 'Absolutely. You should because you want to. The two of you as solo performers are good, but together you can't be beaten."

It never occurred to Paul just how much he missed John. More than anyone else, John had been his friend for ten years, to say nothing of his collaborator, his sidekick, his shadow. Not only had they played music together, they'd hung out together, dreamed together, fucked together, become famous together. Grown up together. "We were each other's intimates," he acquiesced. By the barest amounts, the relationship had given him "security, warmth, humor, wit, money, fame...." At first Paul held out hope that the separation was temporary, admitting that "Nobody" - especially himself - "quite knew if it was just one of John's little flings and that maybe he was going to feel the pinch in a week's time and say, 'I was only kidding.'" But as the weeks, then months, ticked away, Paul finally realized it wasn't a joke. Convinced that John was now abandoning him, increasingly jealous of his relationship with Yoko - and Allen Klein - Paul atoned for the loss with anger. He was angry at the Beatles, but even angrier at John. It took another six months for him to admit the extent of his heartbreak. "John's in love with Yoko," Paul confessed to a reporter from the 'Evening Standard',"and he's no longer in love with the three of us." But for all intents and purposes, he might as well have been talking about himself. (Source: Bob Spitz, The Beatles: The Biography, 2005)

"Paul and I know each other on a lot of different levels that very few people know about." (John)

"In Liverpool, Paul would come round my house and we'd play in the living room. Paul knocked me out with his singing especially, although I remember him being a little embarrassed to really sing out, seeing as we were stuck right in the middle of my parents place with my whole family walking about. He said he felt funny singing about love and stuff around my dad." - George
