Terri Clark - Golden Ring lyrics

(with Dierks Bentley) In a pawn shop in Chicago On a sunny summer day A couple gazes at the wedding rings that are on display She smiles and nods her head As he says “honey, that’s for you” It’s not much but it’s the best that I can do Golden ring (golden ring) With one tiny little stone Waiting there (waiting there) For someone to take it home By himself (by himself) It’s just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring In a little wedding chapel Later on that afternoon An old nup right piano plays that old familiar tune Tears roll down the cheeks And happy thoughts run through her head As he whispers low with this ring I be wed Golden ring (golden ring) With one tiny little stone Shiny ring (shiny ring) Now at last it’s found a home By himself (by himself) It’s just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring In a small two room apartment As they fight their final round He says you won’t admit it but I know you’re leaving town She said one thing’s for certain I don’t love you anymore And throws down the ring as she walks ou the door Golden ring (golden ring) With one tiny little stone Cast aside (cast aside) Like a love that’s dead and gone By himself (by himself) It’s just a cold metallic thing Only love can make a golden wedding ring In a pawn shop in Chicago On a sunny summer day A couple gazes at the wedding rings that are on display
