Page "Wait (The Beatles song)" Paragraph 2

The lyrics, describing the singer's anxieties about his relationship with his girlfriend while he is away, are thematically similar to several other Lennon – McCartney songs, such as " When I Get Home " and " Things We Said Today ," written during the period of 1964 and 1965.

The vocals on the verse are shared between Lennon and McCartney, and McCartney sings the two middle eight sections.

Instrumentally, the most memorable feature of " Wait " is George Harrison's tone pedal guitar.
