Strawberry Fields Forever

About this Song
Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles is a psychedelic rock song that delves into themes of nostalgia, escapism, and the subjective nature of reality. Written by John Lennon, the song reflects his childhood memories of playing in the garden of a Salvation Army children's home called 'Strawberry Field' near his home in Liverpool. The lyrics explore the blurry line between reality and imagination and the desire to escape from the complexities of adult life back to the simplicity and innocence of childhood. A particularly poignant moment is the refrain 'Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see,' which suggests a yearning for a more carefree and less burdened existence.
