Autograph

By Richard Starkey and George Harrison


EV?RY TIME I SEE YOUR FACE,

IT REMINDS ME OF THE PLACES WE USED TO GO.

BUT ALL I GOT IS AN AUTOGRAPH

AND I REALISE YOU'RE NOT COMING BACK ANYMORE.


I THOUGHT I?D MAKE IT THE DAY YOU WENT AWAY,

BUT I CAN'T MAKE IT

TILL YOU COME HOME AGAIN TO STAY-YI-YAY-YI-YAY.


I CAN'T GET USED TO LIVING HERE,

WHILE MY HEART IS BROKE, MY TEARS I CRIED FOR YOU.

I WANT YOU HERE TO HAVE AND HOLD,

AS THE YEARS GO BY AND WE GROW OLD AND GREY.


NOW YOU'RE EXPECTING ME TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU,

BUT THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO.

Seems that Ringo was a collector as well...

Tell you what TLS, it still bloody works. Why?

'Cause when Ringo laid it down all those years back, he knew at some point he'd stop signing autographs and this would be a potential song to allow someone to explain on his behalf whatagwan.

He was of course a photogapher for a while, was he not? Took the cover portraits of T Rex's Slider, did he not?

He could of course, could he not? Because he is above and beyond all else, a Beatle.

...but he wooed the audiences on his "All-Starr" Tours....


I trust the more insightful of our viewers will note the clever play on words of "Starr/Starr".....its that type of vivid and fertile imagery that demonstrates that Ringo will... always be a Beatle.

    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
    • Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.  
    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
