I thought I Want You (She's So Heavy) was about obsession
but John Lennon said it was about how "heavy" or great Yoko Ono was
Then why the ominous dark tone for the music? Is he saying his infatuation is a good thing or a bad thing? I thought he loved Yoko Ono
Good song, though, isn't it?

I've just felt that it's the greatest love song ever written - specifically how repeating it all over and over makes it all the more romantic even though It's also getting more obsessive

obession is one sided though and is not love, because actual love is reciprocated

I Want You (She's So Heavy) is of course a totally one sided love story - I think it's an even more powerful piece of artwork this way, it's not necessarily romantic, it can also be highly creepy and obsessive
Your point is actually a major part of what makes it such a great statement, since obsession is dangerous and takes on completely different meanings when context changes, much like the original lyrics when applies to different situations.
Furthermore the meaning of the original words can be totally negative and stalker-ish depending on the interpretation.
Indeed the situation of "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" is potentially incredibly filthy and open to interpretation.

I am drunk and bad at writing and repeating myself is a thing, but you see what I mean
