"We were talking/About the love we all could share/When we find it/To try our best to hold it there/With our love/With our love/We could save the world/If they only knew"- Within You, Without You, George Harrison.
He was the "quiet one". The lad from Liverpool with the shy smile and romantic songs. He was a master of musical understatement, combining love of music with virtuoso talent to create some of the most instantly-recognizable songs in music history. He was a deeply religious man who sought for the Way constantly. He was a presence more felt through the earphones than through the television or onstage. He was. George Harrison would be sixty-one today. May he rest in peace, sheltered by his friends Johnny and June Carter Cash, among many others. He is greatly missed...

It took a long long long time/Now I'm so happy I found you/How I love you-S.
