Lyrics

It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog

Expressing exhaustion after a challenging day of work.

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

Reflecting on the need for rest, comparing it to sleeping like a log.

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Finding comfort and joy in the partner's actions upon returning home.

Will make me feel alright

Assurance that the partner's actions will make everything feel alright.


You know I work all day to get you money to buy you things

Highlighting the hard work undertaken to provide for the partner.

And it's worth it just to hear you say you're going to give me everything

Expressing fulfillment in hearing the partner's commitment to giving everything in return.

So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone

Questioning the need to complain when alone with the partner, indicating contentment.

You know I feel OK

Feeling okay and satisfied when alone with the partner.


When I'm home everything seems to be right

Describing a sense of rightness when at home.

When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight

Expressing the positive feelings associated with being held tightly by the partner.


It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog

Reiteration of the challenging nature of the day.

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

Reemphasizing the desire for rest after a difficult day.

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Returning home to find solace in the partner's actions.

Will make me feel alright, ow

Reassurance that the partner's actions will bring comfort.


So why on earth should I moan, 'cause when I get you alone

Rhetorical question about complaining when alone with the partner, emphasizing contentment.

You know I feel OK

Confirming the positive feelings experienced when alone with the partner.


When I'm home everything seems to be right

Reiterating the sense of rightness when at home.

When I'm home feeling you holding me tight, tight

Reveling in the positive feelings evoked by the partner's embrace.


It's been a hard day's night, and I been working like a dog

Restating the challenging nature of the day's work.

It's been a hard day's night, I should be sleeping like a log

Echoing the desire for rest after a demanding day.

But when I get home to you I find the things that you do

Finding solace in the partner's actions upon returning home.

Will make me feel alright

Affirming that the partner's actions make everything feel alright.

You know I feel alright

Repeating the affirmation of feeling alright in the partner's presence.

You know I feel alright

Reiterating the positive emotions experienced when with the partner.
