Beatles song she loves you

She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You think she only loves me
Du glaubst sie liebt nur mich?

I saw her yesterday
Gestern hab' ich sie gesehen

She only thinks of you
Sie denkt ja nur an dich

And you should go to her
Und du solltest zu ihr gehen
Oh yes she loves you
Oh, ja sie liebt dich

It couldn't be more beautiful
Schöner kann es gar nicht sein

Yes she loves you
Ja, sie liebt dich

And you should be happy about that
Und da solltest du dich freuen
You hurt her
Du hast ihr weh getan

She didn't know why
Sie wusste nicht warum

It wasn't your fault
Du warst nicht schuld daran

And didn't turn around
Und drehtest dich nicht um
Oh yes she loves you
Oh, ja sie liebt dich

It couldn't be more beautiful
Schöner kann es gar nicht sein

Yes she loves you
Ja, sie liebt dich

And you should be happy about that
Und da solltest du dich freuen
She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Because with you alone she can only be happy
Denn mit dir allein kann sie nur glücklich sein
You have to go to her now
Du musst jetzt zu ihr gehen

Apologize to her
Entschuldigst dich bei ihr

Yes, she will understand
Ja, das wird sie verstehen

And then she forgives you
Und dann verzeiht sie dir
Oh yes she loves you
Oh ja sie liebt dich

It couldn't be more beautiful
Schöner kann es gar nicht sein

Yes she loves you
Ja, sie liebt dich

And there you should be happy (uh)
Und da solltest du dich freuen (uh)
She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

She loves you (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Sie liebt dich (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Because with you alone she can only be happy
Denn mit dir allein kann sie nur glücklich sein

Because with you alone she can only be happy
Denn mit dir allein kann sie nur glücklich sein

Because with you alone she can only be happy
Denn mit dir allein kann sie nur glücklich sein



The Beatles tell quite a tale in this tidy pop song. Some poor guy thinks he has lost his girl for good, but he's redeemed when he finds out from a friend that she still loves him. There's even a moral at the end of the story: "Pride can hurt you too." Good advice when arguing with a loved one.
This was an instant hit in the UK, but not in America, where it was released on Swan Records, the only US label that would take it. Swan put it out in September 1963, but while The Beatles were huge in their homeland, they were still no big deal in America until February 1964. That's when Beatlemania took hold and "She Loves You" became a US hit.
This popularized the phrase "yeah, yeah, yeah." Paul McCartney's dad wanted them to sing "yes, yes, yes" instead because he thought it sounded more dignified.
