[Intro]
If you can't laugh, you know
What's the problem?

[Verse 1]
We were once upon a time
Then your love disappeared
You can't help crying
When you love something so dear
There's a mile of heartache that I had to cross
Face down, longing for the love I lost
I can't help wondering
How I ended up here

[Chorus]
So I cried so hard
I was tripping on my own tears

[Verse 2]
What was so confusing
Is now becoming so clear
She tried to tell me
What I never wanted to hear
It don't matter if the sun does shine
It's always clouded know that you're not mine
For one foolish moment
Won't you forgive me dear

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Why you can't that I'm dying?
I'm not a saint, but god I'm trying, trying
It don't matter
If you're wrong or right
When you're walking the floor
And you're up all the night
I'll wait for you
If it takes a million years

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
On my own tears[repeat until fade]

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.
