เนื้อเพลง The Ring
By the light of the moon
13
To a 50's tune
1f
He pledged his love to her
13
A girl so rare
13
A girl so fair
1e
The girl for him for sure
32
He could see himself getting up every mornin'
1d
For the rest of his life
27
Just to look in those eyes so blue
24
It was all he ever wanted to do
32
She was all he'd ever need to see him through
5
23
They were still in their teens
1e
When he gave her The Ring
23
They were married late one may
27
And they moved into a little house
1b
On the far end of town
1b
Out by the big highway
1d
And all through the days
1f
And all through the nights
25
The cars and trucks rolled on by
2a
And he slept through it all just fine
23
Every night he slept just fine
5
36
Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window
29
Sometimes she'd walk `neath the moon
39
Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping
24
Hoping the dawn would come soon
5
1e
She'd done well in school
1d
She'd followed the rules
2d
And she'd always stood out from the rest
1c
She'd go off to college
1d
And work her way through
24
Then move to some city out west
1b
She had it all planned
1a
She'd have her career
3a
She'd have all of the things that she'd always lacked
5
29
She'd wake up one morning all packed
27
And leave here and never look back
5
36
Most of her friends thought it soon would be over
23
Not many thought it would last
3c
Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other
30
And soon it would pass - soon it would pass
5
1f
Now twenty years have gone
1f
And her kids have moved on
2b
And she's still on the far end of town
3a
Her youngest she's livin' somewhere in l.a.
33
And her oldest ญ he works on a nearby farm
1b
Her husband comes home
1e
And they talk over supper
26
He's usually the first to turn in
20
Another day comes to an end
1a
Another day just ends
5
3e
And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down
33
She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing
42
And she'll look out the window and she'll look at his picture
2e
But not at the ring ญ not at the ring
20
She never looks at the ring
