Strawberry Fields Forever
The Ultimate Beatles Cover Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
But it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me

Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
That is you can't, you know, tune in
But it's all right
That is I think it's not too bad

Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever

Always, no sometimes, think it's me
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a yes
But it's all wrong
That is I think I disagree

Let me take you down
'Cause I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real
And nothing to get hung about
Strawberry Fields forever




Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever

Overall Meaning

The phrase "strawberry fields" may refer to a place where one can go to escape reality and find peace. The singer invites the listener to join them on this journey, as nothing "real" matters and there is nothing to be "hung about."


The following lines suggest that the singer is struggling to find their place in the world, as their perception of reality is constantly being challenged. They describe living with their "eyes closed," and being "misunderstood" by those around them. Despite this, the singer suggests that it will all "work out" in the end, indicating a sense of hope.


Later in the song, the singer mentions feeling disconnected from others, feeling as though they are "in [their] tree" and unreachable. They acknowledge that this dreamlike state can be hard to describe, but ultimately decide that it's "not too bad." The song closes with the repeated refrain of "strawberry fields forever," suggesting that this dream world is something the singer wishes to hold on to indefinitely.


Overall, the song paints a picture of an idealized world that exists outside of reality, providing a welcome escape from the struggles of everyday life.
