Best known as lead guitarist of the The Beatles, George Harrisonalso achieved mainstream success as a solo artist. Smothered by the overwhelming songwriting egos of his Beatles band mates, John Lennonand Paul McCartney, Harrison never felt he was able to fully express himself as a member of the band. This along with his distinctive more eastern oriented style of music made sure that most of his vast backlog of songs was never released while he was with the Beatles. As tensions within the Beatles flared towards the end of the sixties, Harrison took the time to compile his solo material, from which he released his first album All Things Must Passin 1970. The album contains the two-time, number one hit, My Sweet Lord, and to this day remains the most commercially successful solo album by a Beatle.

I Live For You (Edited Finished Version 1969) Lyrics
George Harrison
All alone in this world am I
Not a care for this world have I
Only you keep my eyes open wide
Yes it's true
I live for you
Not a thing in this world do I own
Only sadness from all that is grown
In this darkness I wait for the day
Yes it's true
I live for you
For many years I wait
For many tears I wait
All this time my thoughts return to you
Give my love, that is all I can do
Wait in line till I feel you inside
Yes it's true
I live for you
For many years I wait
For many tears I wait
All this time my thoughts return to you
Give my love, that is all I can do
Wait in line till I feel you inside
Yes it's true
I live for you
