[Intro]
(Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo)

[Verse 1]
Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you

[Verse 2]
Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand, I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one and only you

[Verse 1]
Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make my darkness bright
Only you and you alone
Can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you

[Verse 2]
Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand, I understand
The magic that you do
You're my dream come true
My one, my one and only you

[Outro]
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only you
Only you
Mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm-mm

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.
