Trippin’ on Own Tears Songtext
von Ringo Starr

"If you can laugh, you know, what′s the problem?"

We were once upon a time
then your love disappeared
you can't help crying
when you love something so dear
there′s a mile of heartache that I had to cross
face down, longing for the love I lost
I can't help wonderin'
how I ended up here.

So I cried so hard
I was trippin′ on my own tears.

What was so confusing
is now becoming so clear
she tried to tell me
what I never wanted to hear
it don′t matter if the sun does shine
it's always clouded know that you′re not mine
for one foolish moment
won't you forgive me dear.


So I cried so hard
I was trippin′ on my own tears.

Why you can't that I′m dying?
I'm not a saint, but god I'm trying, trying.

It don′t matter
if you′re wrong or wright
when you're walking the floor
and you′re up all the night
I'll wait for you
if it takes a million years.

Well I cried so hard
I was trippin′ on my own tears
(He cried so hard he was trippin' on his own tears)
Well I cried so hard
I was trippin′ on my own tears
(Cried so hard I was trippin' on my own tears)
On my own tears (Cried so hard)
On my own tears
On my own tears

Everybody!
(Cried so hard)


On my own tears.

"Great tambourine."
"Yeah, I was trippin'. Trip, trip, trippin′ on my own tears, you know. Trippin′ up, trippin' there, trippin′ out."
