Summary
John Lennon, busy scraping by while working at a record shop (one he happened to be rather fond of), felt like he was so, so close to finally making a break in the music industry with his closest lad - Paul McCartney. Of course, there were others he could credit here and there, but it was him and Paul that were the ones busying themselves with songwriting.
They were the ones spending every feasible, waking moment together just to correct one another on the smallest detail of a lyric.
They were the ones pressing their knees together, so close their breaths mixed as they tuned their instruments by ear.
They were the reason John felt even slightly capable of seeing a possible future ahead of him while everything behind him couldn't get shaken off.
