Write One for Me

Ringo Starr · Ringo Rama [2003]

A young man strumming his guitar in the corner of a bar

Singing about a broken heart for hours and hours

By closing time I face the fact that if I had a gift like that

I know that I could win her back

But there's some things I can't do so now it's up to you



Write one for me

Put the perfect words together

Write one for me

A melody to last forever

I don't have the song so if you please

Tell her she's the right one for me



And It does no good for you to play a pretty song like 'Yesterday'

'Cause that's not what I need to say to get her to love me

And I'm too scared to tell her so, so if you'd be my Cyrano

And send to her a tune I know that she would change her mind

Take a little time and



Write one for me

Put the perfect words together

Write one for me

A melody to last forever

I don't have the song so if you please

Tell her she's the right one for me



If I could have a poem I would send one

But I don't have a pen I can't depend on

I can't come up with a single line

So would you write the song

And tell her that it's my mine, all mine



Write one for me

Put the perfect words together

Write one for me

A melody to last forever

I don't have the song so if you please

Tell her she's the right one for me

Tell her she's the right one for me
