So I guess that debunks the L.S.D. theory.

I always thought it was about drugs. Or are they rewriting history again?

Screwy disease. Symptoms are all over the place and always shifting. She was diagnosed at least 20 years ago. Lately its thyroid problems that top the list.

Yeah, because how could anyone think these lyrics had anything to do with drugs.... sure seems more like a nursery school friendship to me:
Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone.

I’m sorry for your sister, that has to be a horrible disease to deal with since it has so many manifestations.
To: bgill
I don’t understand. Why can’t the song be about both?

John said a long time ago his son brought him that drawing of Lucy in the sky with diamonds and he came up with the song from there.

"
Can't we do both",
League of their OwnNancy Sinatra's Sugartown is also one of those double meaning songs.

The painting that inspired the song Julian later confirmed this: "I don't know why I called it that or why it stood out from all my other drawings, but I obviously had an affection for Lucy at that age. "I used to show dad everything I'd built or painted at school, and this one sparked off the idea for a song about Lucy in the sky with diamonds." Beatles biographers and account by band members confirm that she is the most likely source of the song.

How fricking cool would it be to have a song written about you by the Beatles?
