"Within You Without You"

I was thinking about "Within You Without You" yester-day, specifically the melody to which the first line is sung.  It's something like:

The lyric here is "We were talking about the space between us all."  The beginning and ending of the phrase are conjunct, but there are larger intervals (mostly fourths) in the middle, as if to illustrate that "space."

"Drive My Car"

I was thinking about "Drive My Car" this morning, and I realized that under the line "But you can do something in between," the drums start lending some emphasis to the off-beats, something like:

This change in the rhythm is especially conspicuous since the cowbell, which had been playing on each downbeat, drops out.

I may be making too much of this, but this emphasis on the off-beats sort of complements the "in between" in the lyric above.
