Calico Skies Lyrics

Cover art for Calico Skies lyrics by Paul McCartney

I read that Paul wrote the song about an old movie about two soldiers. Male soldiers ,who fought togather and were secertly in love. the one dies on the battle field in the other's arms. And before you rag on me. I'm a huge Beatle Fan! listen to it again. " always looking for ways to love you, never failing to fight at your side.----from the intermost secerts we hide" " long live all us crazy soldiers"
They made a American movie called Wings in 29. the two guys weren't gay , but they loved each other and the death scene was heartbreaking and quite shocking for the time.

@ronsimba I don't know where you read that McCartney wrote the song about two soldiers who secretly loved each other. You know, like women, men can have a love for another man without being in love. Soldiers are often heard to say there is a bond between warriors - a band of brothers - but it doesn't mean they are gay. There is too much these days about men being gay when they really are not gay, merely expressing the kind of love women frequently say they wish men could do.

@ronsimba Hello, do you know what Calico Skies means in Spanish? I speak Spanish but I can't find the meaning of Calico Skies in Spanish
