Great song from All Things Must Pass. When you listen to this album you can come to understand why he remained so bitter about the break up of the Beatles. Clearly it affected him tremendously and the hurt comes through in many of his songs on the album.
Run of the Mill is a prime example. Here his subject appears to be Paul as he's mentioned, but it could just as well be John.
"Another day for you to realize me or send me down again" sounds to me like George talking about his Second Class Beatle status. Many of his songs were passed over (and ended up on this album)and outright criticized by John during the Get Back sessions.
"You've got me wondering how I've lost your friendship" is most likely to Paul, as at the time George was still friendly with John. "Though I'm beside you" could be in the studio, at the boardroom table (Apple) or whatever, but the subject is clearly someone who George felt very close to.
This ranks right up there with McCartney's "Dear Friend" on the Wild Life album in terms of their true feelings towards each other during the early 70s. Both, actually have similar themes, though Paul's song is almost "shocked" whereas George has a more resigned sadness. It's a very dark album, really.
