Standing Next to Me

I got a call from Mr Hart Said would you like to be a part of something great To join a band with Ringo Starr Bring along your bass guitar and don't be late So what was there to say I soon was on my way And on that very night I met the man Who was a major part Was at the very start Of where it all began We talked about our growin' up Of gettin' sick and throwin' up And Northern girls He told us tales of the Fabs His adventures with the lads Who changed the world We played each other's songs The people sang along And all was peace and love We'd play a two hour set Fly by private jet I knеw that I belonged We sang a song about a man who's sad and lonеly Gettin' down upon his bended knee I had to pinch myself When every night I saw Him standing next to me We knocked 'em dead in Chicago Broke the bank in Monte Carlo What a trip Yes peace and love was our mantra Making music, trading banter Very hip The years would slip away With every song we'd play See the people taken back in time To where it all began Workin' with the man I'd go back anytime We sang a song about a man who's sad and lonely Gettin' down upon his bended knee I had to pinch myself When every night I saw Him standing next to me Now I'm back in London Town My feet have barely touched the ground I am blessed I hope someday we'll reunite Once again I'll take that flight It was the best We sang a song about a man who's sad and lonely Gettin' down upon his bended knee I had to pinch myself When every night I saw Him standing next to me We sang a song about a man who's sad and lonely Gettin' down upon his bended knee I had to pinch myself When every night I saw Him standing next to me I got a call from Mr Hart Said would you like to be a part of something great
