Lyr Req: Titles (Barclay James Harvest)

Subject: Lyr Req: song search; am I making this up?
From: Merritt

Somewhere over the last 30 years or so I got the idea that a pop band created a song lyric out of the titles of Beatles songs. Does anyone know name of song, name of band, location of lyrics?

Thanks!

Just found an answer to my own question. A band called Barclay James Harvest wrote/recorded a soug called "Titles" made of Beatles song titles. Gotta do more digging.

Do you remember this song it was called "TITLES".

'The long and winding road that leads to your door,
here comes the sun its alright people shout for more,
But were you trying to deceive telling me,
All you need is love to succeed.
 
CHORUS
Lady Madonna let it be
Something in the way you moved me yesterday
All you need is love so they say.
 
Across the universe one after nine,
I got a feeling for you blue and I feel fine,
I tried so hard to make believe that I'd see
All you need is love to succeed.

A good song from a good album (Time Honoured Ghosts). I particularly like "Hymn For The Children".

By the way, just a minor correction to your lyrics. Instead of "Across the universe one after nine", it should be "Across the universe one after nine oh nine". As in the Beatles song "One After 909".
