Paul McCartney on ‘Days We Left Behind’
Paul McCartney opens up about the memories behind Days We Left Behind, a deeply nostalgic track inspired by his childhood in Liverpool. Speaking about the song, he reflects on growing up with very little, the people who shaped his early life, and the moments that stayed with him—from smoky bars to the beginnings of The Beatles. With a stripped-back acoustic sound and emotional vocals, the track captures both the passage of time and the lasting pull of home.
