[Verse 1]
We were young, it was fun
And we couldn't lose
Times were right, overnight
We were headline news
Crazy days and reckless nights
Limosuines and bright spotlights
We were brothers through it all

[Chorus]
And your songs will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Without you, without you)
Within you, without you (Within you, without you)
"Here Comes the Sun" is about you

[Verse 2]
Here today, not alone
With my memories
Life is strange how things change
It's reality
You played a beautiful melody
That keeps on haunting me
I can always feel you by my side

[Chorus]
And your songs will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Without you, without you)
Within you, without you (Within you, without you)
"Here Comes the Sun" is about you

[Bridge]
I know all things must pass
And only love will last
I'll always love the memory of you and me
Take it away, Eric

[Chorus]
And your songs will play on without you
And this world won't forget about you
Every part of you was in your song
Now we will carry on
Never without you (Never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
We're never without you (We're never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)

[Outro]
We're never without you (We're never without you)
We're never without you (We're never without you)
Within you without you (Within you without you)
"I Dig Love" is about you

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.
