“Look at Me” is a song from Buddy Holly’s debut album released in 1958. Paul McCartney and Denny Laine recorded the song for Denny’s 1977 cover album of Holly’s songs, “Holly Days“.
Hey hey look at me and tell me
What's gonna happen to you
When you've broken too many people's hearts
And can't find anyone new
Say say look at me and tell me
About that twinkle in your eye
Is the twinkle in your eye meant for me
Or meant for some other guy
Look at me from now on
Know the love we share
Look at me from now on
Let me know you care
Hey hey look at me and tell me
What's gonna happen to you
When you've spoken sweet words of love to me
And I want to marry you

Paul McCartney: Music Is Ideas. The Stories Behind the Songs (Vol. 1) 1970-1989
With 25 albums of pop music, 5 of classical – a total of around 500 songs – released over the course of more than half a century, Paul McCartney's career, on his own and with Wings, boasts an incredible catalogue that's always striving to free itself from the shadow of The Beatles. The stories behind the songs, demos and studio recordings, unreleased tracks, recording dates, musicians, live performances and tours, covers, events: Music Is Ideas Volume 1 traces McCartney's post-Beatles output from 1970 to 1989 in the form of 346 song sheets, filled with details of the recordings and stories behind the sessions. Accompanied by photos, and drawing on interviews and contemporary reviews, this reference book draws the portrait of a musical craftsman who has elevated popular song to an art-form.
