I wanted to know what Paul's looking so lovingly at on the back of their cover so I recreated his hand placement and this is approximately where his left hand is pointing at.
Here is a clean copy for my John girlies:
The dream is over. What can I say? The dream is over. Yesterday
God (1970)
The only thing you done was yesterday And since you've gone you're just another day
How Do You Sleep? (1971)
Today, I love you more than yesterday Right now, I love you more right now
I Know (I Know) (1973)
Q: "Is there a song on your album 'Imagine' that refers to Paul? Lines about a pretty face and the sound of Muzak?"
John Lennon: (smiling) "Er, there's a song which COULD be a statement about Paul. It could be interpreted that way. But then, it could be about an old chick I'd known."

The Beatles Anthology - Director’s Cut
John Lennon and Paul McCartney during the Beatles’ only 24-hour recording session began at 5pm on the afternoon of 16 October 1968, and concluded at 5pm on Thursday 17 October.
The reason for the mammoth session was for mixing, edits and crossfades for the White Album. What’s more, George Harrison and Ringo Starr were on holiday in Los Angeles and Sardinia respectively, leaving John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Martin and the EMI staff to complete the record. All three main studios at Abbey Road were used, in addition to two extra rooms, as the final running order was decided upon and a master tape assembled. (BeatlesBible.com)

Ok, we’re used to the eye f*cking on stage, but this is on a whole new level.
Wish they had kept this in the video.
In 1996, the three remaining Beatles reunited. They were feeling empty during the photoshoot without John Lennon being there. A white peacock then mysteriously appeared behind George for one of the photos. When they saw it, they all felt John's presence and the mood was lifted.
