"You Won't See Me" is a song by the English rock band the Beatles from their 1965 album Rubber Soul. It was written by Paul McCartney and credited to Lennon–McCartney. As with songs such as "We Can Work It Out" and "I'm Looking Through You" from the same period, the lyrics address McCartney's troubled relationship with Jane Asher and her desire to pursue her career as a stage and film actress. The Beatles recorded the song during what author Mark Lewisohn describes as a "marathon" final recording session for Rubber Soul,[2] to ensure the album's pre-Christmas release.
Canadian pop singer Anne Murray covered "You Won't See Me" in 1974. Her version was a top ten hit in both her native country and the United States. The track additionally appeared on her album Love Song.
