I got my copy of I Me Mine to check if George wrote "but it's all over now, baby blue" in the handwritten lyrics for When We Was Fab or that was added later on studio. and THIS was how i found out that he actually had written "but it's alright ma, it's life only" in the handwritten lyrics. He took away a bob dylan reference to put another bob dylan reference. Fangirl behavior
The thing about I'd have you anytime and behind that locked door is that both songs started with george trying to get to bob. He started I'd have you anytime with "let me in here, I know I've been here, let me into your heart" bc bob was distant in that trip to woodstock. Behind that locked door is an entire song with a similar idea but he also wants to show to bob that he is loved by everyone ("the love you are blessed with this/world is waiting for") and by george himself ("with only this short time/I'm gonna be here with you") and also how much george loves to listen to him ("and the tales you've told me/from the things that you saw/makes me want our your heart"). And then on the concert for bangladesh when bob goes there and play in the concert he is basically opening himself to that possibility, yknow??? And when George says "I'd like to bring an old friend of us all, Mr Bob Dylan" he is reinforcing those ideas he mentioned on behind that locked door, that Bob is loved by everyone, but he does it in a much bigger scale somehow

“The musicians crowded around center stage for final bows, cheers washed up in waves from the audience, and even Dylan was swept up in the euphoria. Backstage, Dylan picked George up and squeezed him. ‘God,’ Dylan said, ‘if only we’d done *three* shows.’”
— Joshua M. Greene on the Concert for Bangladesh, Here Comes the Sun: The Spiritual and Musical Journey of George Harrison

'Way Out' George Harrison at Chiswick Park in London, England | May 1966 © Robert Whitaker
'Way Out' shows George Harrison during a cigarette break in the Chiswick Park filming. George wears his sunglasses and appears oblivious to the crowd gathered behind him, locked out of the park, but within spitting distance of him. It was the afternoon, and children from the local school were returning home – and realised what was going on in the park. A crowd soon gathered, hoping for a glimpse of their heroes. This dramatic photograph succeeds in epitomising, in a single image, the glamour, fame and magnetism of the Beatles. "Somehow one schoolgirl got through the security net. You can imagine how thrilled she was. It was quite touching – The Beatles were so friendly towards her and behaved like perfect gentlemen", Robert recalls.
