Ringo Starr Album

Life is fast, life is strange
Every breath is filled with happiness or pain
The story goes till you reach the end
Why give it up when there's a chance to start again?

How many times do we need to hear it
There's a light out there
No need to fear it

Fading in, fading out
Isn't that what life's about?
First you're here, then you're gone
Still the world goes on and on
But that's all right, I'm here right now
It takes so long sometimes to figure out

Fading in and fading out
Lightening strikes and shines so bright
But when it's gone we're never left without the light
But I believe there's more than this
It all can't be just show biz

Fading in, fading out
Isn't that what life's about?
First you're here, then you're gone
Still the world goes on and on
But that's all right, I'm here right now
It takes so long sometimes to figure out

Tell me why we're here
All we really need is love
And when I disappear
I pray that I have left enough

Fading in, fading out
Isn't that what life's about?
First you're here, then you're gone
Still the world goes on and on
But that's all right, I'm here right now
It takes so long sometimes to figure out
Fading in and fading out

Living on the street
Tonight's a lonely place to be all right, oh lord
The rhythm of the city, I don't find it pretty anymore
Like I did before
You walked out my door

Give me back the beat, give me back the beat
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
Give me back the beat and let's rock on

I feel the pounding of your heart
But I'm alone here in the dark, it's true
Alleys filled with misery
Shadows of your memories break thru
I never knew
How much I needed you

Give me back the beat, give me back the beat
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
Give me back the beat and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby)

I won't sleep; baby, I can't eat
I'm in too deep
It's a high fall running into a brick wall all by yourself
But I know what will help

That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(now that you're gone)
So give me back the beat, you've got to...

(Give me back the beat, give me back the beat)
Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete
If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street
I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone
(she's really gone)
So give me back the beat and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby)
So give me back the beat and let's rock on
(rock on)
Give me back the beat... and let's rock on

(ooh, rock on baby)
Let's rock on, baby, mmm...
(ooh, rock on baby)
Gary's rockin'... Mark's rockin' on...
(ooh, rock on baby)
Steve's rockin' on... Ringo's rockin' on!
(ooh, rock on baby)
Come on, rock!
(ooh, rock on baby)
Let's rock on.

Ringo Starr - Oh My Lord

Help me Lord (2x)
I need your love so bad

Oh my Lord (2x)
I need your love so bad

When I'm in darkness
And full of fear
I know the answer
When you are here

Now I believe
It's all become clear

Oh my Lord (2x)
I need your love so bad

When my heart is wondering (my heart is wondering)
Hopless and sad
I look for the answers (I look for the answers)
The ones that you have

I have to let go
To be in your hands

Oh my Lord (2x)
I need your love so bad

The sky is blue
Because of you
You're everywhere (everywhere)
With peace and love (peace and love)
You rise above
And find you there (and find you there)

Of all that's incertain
After all I've been through
The one thing that's certain
That I know is true
Love that we need
It all comes from you

Oh my Lord (2x)
I need your love so bad

Ringo Starr - Hard To Be True

Here in the night is when the memories fly
'Cause when I'm alone, I'm alone and I can't lie
It doesn't matter what I do
I'm still in love with you
Why is it so hard, so hard to be true?

If I could take back all the things I've done
When I live in the past I relive everyone
Lying to myself, I knew
I break my heart in two
Why is it so hard, so hard to be true?

Time after time
Am I a record that's been broken?
I know that I'm outside a door that I can't open
The words through love I'd never spoken

It's such a surprise to feel so much regret
But you are a love I know I won't forget
What I did I can't undo
I really wish I knew
Why is it so hard, so hard...
Why is it so hard, so hard...
Why is it so hard, so hard to be true?

When it starts to go wrong
And I feel like it can't go back
It's just a bump in the road
It's just a penny that's on the track

Some people can't move on
And some can't let it go
But I can...and you can
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

Sometimes it seems
Like we'll never be whole again
Like an oak in the wind
We bend a little bit now and then

Some people won't reach out
Some people won't reach in
But I will...and you will
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

Hold on tight
Try with all your might
It might get a little rough sometimes
Like a ship on a stormy night

But it's all gonna be all right
At the end of the day
Love is the only word

And there's nothing to say
It's the best one we've ever heard
Some people don't forget
The troubles that come their way

But I do... and you do
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

I do... and you do
So we don't have to worry 'bout that

Why am I wrong all the time?
That's all that I want to know
I used to do everything right
It doesn't seem that long ago

Why am I wrong all the time?
I'm not the one who has changed
You look with a new point of view
I still look at you the same

I'm the same man that I was
Now all you see are my mistakes
All I want to give is love
But the way that we are
Makes my heart break

Give me a reason to go on
Or I'm gonna walk out that door
And you'll realize when I'm gone
I'm the same man that I was before

I'm the same man that I was
Now all you see are my mistakes
All I want to give is love
But the way that we are
Makes my heart break

Give me a reason to go on
Letting love die is unkind
If I still know you're the one
Why am I wrong all the time?
How can I be wrong all the time?

Ringo: With my inside outside
looking for a free ride
waiting for the band to come

Chrissie: Is it me or the drummin'
our your guitar strummin'
gotta tell me I'm the only one

Ringo: I wanna sit here, drink beer
I really love you dear but there's a
Rent man at the door

Chrissie: I got new shoes, new dress
hair-do, I guess
you don't love me anymore

Both: Don't Hang Up
Don't Hang Me Up

Ringo: When I'm out there rockin'
I'll be rockin' round the clock and
I will always come home to you

Chr:While yo're downtown playin'
I'll be uptown strayin' cause
that's what lonely women do

Both: Don't Hang Up
Dont Hang Me Up

Both: Love is strange, love is sad
But love is everything we have
It's gone today, gone tomorrow
Why is that the way it have to be
for you and me?

Love is strange, love is sad
But love is everything we have
It's gone today, gone tomorrow
Why is that the way it have to be
for you and me?

Chr: Sorry, I'll be out of town
Ringo: Wait dear/Chr:Not here

Don't Hang up
Dont Hang Me Up

Dark clouds in my head ... dis ... ap ... pear
The sky is turning blue ... now you're here
We've come a long way ... day after day ...
we still got a long way to go

You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose ... choose love

The Long and Winding Road ... is more than a song
Tomorrow Never Knows ... What Goes On
To live your life right ... you've got to let in the light ...
and let all the darkness go

You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter who you choose ... choose love


Love ... love ... love ... love ... love
CHOOSE LOVE!

You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter how you choose ...

You've got to pay your dues ... if you want to sing the blues
But, no matter what you choose ... choose love

Choose love ... choose love ... choose love

"Love is the answer."

I won't tell you what to do
No need to tell you what we've been through
I am speaking from my heart tonight
Maybe this time I will get it right

And Darling this is true
It's me and you
I remember when times were bad
You were the best friend I ever had
You were always by my side it's true

There was no place I could hide my blues
Still we made it through
Just me and you
Hold me
It's now or never
Hold me

I'm gonna love you beyond forever
I am speaking from my heart tonight
Maybe this time I will get it right
'Cause darling this is true
It's me and you
It's me and you

Ringo Starr - Satisfied

Give me all the time you have
Won't be satisfied
I'm happy when you hold my hand
Still not satisfied

When you tell me is time to go
I'll ask you for a minute more

And if you never leave my side
I won't be satisfied

If I only have one day with you
Won't be satisfied
Even with a year or two
Still not satisfied

I'm not asking for to much
Lot of smile, a lot of touch

And if you never leave my side
I won't be satisfied
I'm not satisfied

I spend my lifetime looking for someone like you
And you lay next to me you made my dream come true

Here in the morning light
Yes, I'm satisfied
And If I never out of your sight
I am satisfied

I only want to hear your smile
I want forever not just a while

And if you never leave my side
I'll be satisfied

(Oh, satisfied) Yes, satisfied
(Oh, satisfied) Hum, satisfied
(Oh, satisfied) I'll be satisfied
(Oh, satisfied)

Ohhhh, oh yeah (4x)

Satisfied

How thick can you be?
Lost in the dreamery
Pick your own reality

How many versions do you need?
How low can you go?
Hear the devil say hello

If you light the fuse, don't you know
Like moby dick...there she blows

Somewhere out there you can find it anywhere
Uptown downtown you've got to find the turnaround

Don't tell me what to say
I'm gonna say it anyway
Black and blue or shades of gray
Find the middle s'il vous plait

How do you get to sleep?
With the promises you never keep
The hill you're on is mighty steep
But it's all right

Somewhere out there you can find it anywhere
Uptown downtown you've got to find the turnaround

You draw your own conclusion
Reality or illusion
Stop the chaos and confusion
Get yourself a life transfusion

Somewhere out there you can find it anywhere
Uptown downtown you've got to find the turnaround

Monday is here and I'm feeling no pain
Easy jet ticket to take me to Spain
Captain get your foot down; two hours I'll be there

Tuesday in love with a girl I don't know
Lost her that night in the Karma disco
I don't care, lovers are everywhere

It's a good day... for nothing at all
Bad day... for taking a fall
It's a holiday... don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks!
(Free drinks! Free drinks!)

Wednesday I'm shopping in Juan Les Pins
Dressed to the nines and I'm dancing in Cannes
Can you stay with me in Saint-Tropez?

Thursday a suite (so sweet) at Saint Paul's Colombe D'or
Chagalls on the walls and her dress on the floor
A kiss goodbye, it's time for me to fly

It's a good day... for nothing at all
Bad day... for taking a fall
It's a holiday... don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks!
(Free drinks! Free drinks! Free drinks!)

One, two, three, four!

Friday, I sleep... I'm not sure where I am
Saturday, Saturday, first class on American
To L.A., but only for one day
Now it's Sunday
(Oh my Lord, I need your love so bad)

Good day... for nothing at all
It's a bad day... for taking a fall
Holiday... don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all

It's a good day... to ram the hall
Bad day... for climbing the wall
It's a holiday... don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all

Good day... for nothing at all
It's a bad day... for taking a fall
Holiday... don't bother to call
Free drinks for one and for all
Free drinks! (Free drinks!)
Free drinks! (Free drinks!)
Free drinks! (Free drinks!)
Free drinks! (Free drinks!)
