[Verse]
Nobody loved her, it was easy to see
That made it easy for me
The boys never fought over her company
That made it easy for me
Love so bright could only blind us
How could reason hope to find us
Hiding in the milky way
Without a star to shine the way?
Sand castles fell from the tears in our eyes
That made it easier to see
Now the dream's over and i realise
That makes it easy for me

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
