"Returning Without Tears" lyrics - RINGO STARR

Tell me a story
And I don't care if it's true
Just tell me everything I want to hear

I borrowed every hope
Of any prayer and chance from you
Knowing I'll return them all in tears

I was born to hunger
Of the spirit to be free
But gave in to my heart with every year

Believing I could trust that you
Would keep it safe for me
But now you are returning it in tears

[Guitar solo]

I walk myself away now
From the gamble that is love
I follow the parade I've known for years

Of broken-hearted angels
Who all warn me from above
There is no path returning without tears

[Outro:]

[Guitar solo]
