Thanks Well, in that case.....I suppose Walrus, or Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.I Want to Hold Your Hand is really a way of saying I want to sleep with you. Back in the 60's they had to use holding hands as metaphors for having sex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamisonic Posted June 4, 2005 Author Share Posted June 4, 2005 Thanks stev, but that song is drugs/sex so it may be inappropiate. Currently Im using "Just Like Heaven" by the Cure but I would like to take a Beatles song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
