A childhood belief about misheard lyrics

when i heard "strawberry fields forever" for the first time, i mistook it as "strawberry fields for trevor" whenever i heard the song i would say (rather loudly i might add)"WHO'S TREVOR? AND WHY DOES HE GET STRAWBERRY FIELDS" once i did this is a sore at the mall, wih a radio playing. It gets worse. We (my parents and i, i was about 5) were at an electronics store, and just then a salemen came around and said "Do you have any questions?" "yes," i reaplied "Who's trevor?"
Unfortunatly for me, nobody understood (What a nice imagination our daughter has) or set me straight about the song lyrics. Several years later, when i was 9 i was still hanging on the my "Trevor" belief when i went to a Pick-Ur-Own strawberry farm type thing with a sign that said "Strawberry Fields" this set off a little bell in my head, would i soon find out who trevor was? when some guy came to tell us where to go and to give us a container for the strawberries i just had to say : "Excuse me, but are you trevor?"
