I saw her standing there

Es una canción compuesta por la dupla Lennon-McCartney y lanzada el 22 de marzo de 1963 como canción inicial de su disco debut Please Please Me. Lo que Paul escribió en un principio fue "She was just seventeen, never been a beauty queen". La única opinión que esto le mereció a Lennon es que era una mierda, y añadió "and you know what I mean". La canción era muy popular entre los públicos de la Caverna y del Star Club, y desde entonces se ha convertido en un clásico. Fue escrita originalmente en una libreta de ejercicios del "Liverpool Institute"

I saw her standing there

Well, she was just 17

You know what I mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compare

So how could I dance with another

Oh when I saw her standing there

Well she looked at me

And I, I could see

That before too long I'd fall in love with her

She wouldn't dance with another

Oh when I saw her standing there

Well my heart went zoom

When I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine

Oh we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long I fell in love with her

Now I'll never dance with another

Oh when I saw her standing there

Well my heart went zoom

When I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine

Oh we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long I fell in love with her

Now I'll never dance with another

Oh since I saw her standing there
