3. Gotta take a little time
Well, adding it all together should read:
#3 I gotta take a little time (since there should be SIX words) ???

Ok you got it... although this one got me a little confused.. i listened to my mp3 of Penny Lane 8 times and I don't hear "IN" at the beginning... so i started checking lyrics sites, and some show it with the word "IN" and some show it without.. ???

OK, so it must be: You know our love was meant to be.
I think whitewolf deserves at least a point for getting so darn close two times. But then - it's your quiz! ;)

Well, technically you got it... but if you want to give her your point, since her answers helped you with #3 and this one, that's up to you... and very nice of you to think of it...
so, its your call. :)

I think Paul says " 'N Penny lane there is...." sort of half swallowing the word "in"

The next word is "all" but isn't that the start of the second line?

Don't worry about it, whitewolf, you quoted the line correctly. I'll try #19: "The wise man said just walk this way."
