The Ring lyrics

Artist  : Terri Hendrix 
Song : The Ring



 Send "The Ring" Ringtone to your Cell 

 												
														   When we were kids

Wed lay
awake at night

And listen to my mom and dad
talk about money

When times were tight

My mom would raise her voice

My dad
wouldnt say a thing

Hed walk outside 

Turn on his workshop light

And hed work
on a ring

My dad earned the Soldiers
Medal

And the Purple Heart in Vietnam

He learned how to make jewelry

To ease
his mind on the ship back home

The war left
him changed 

He never said a thing

Every time he thought about it

Hed work
on the ring

For my mother

He made a
ring

For my mother

Hed do most
anything

A quiet man

With words
unspoken

Proved his love could not be
broken

Out of a half dollar

My
father

Made my mom a ring

We watched
him through the window

As he worked one
afternoon

He held the silver half dollar in
his hand

As he tapped the edges with a
spoon

When I asked my dad if he was mad

He never said a thing

It seemed to ease
his troubled mind

As he worked on the
ring

For my mother

He made a ring

For my mother

Hed do most anything

A quiet man

With words unspoken

Proved his love could not be broken

Out
of a half dollar

My father

Made my
mom a ring

Every holiday

We gather
round the table

As my dad prays

And
when we close our eyes

Sometimes I think my
dad cries

And those words left unspoken

Ive come to understand

Whats kept our
family together

Is worn on my mothers
hand

For my mother

He made a ring

For my mother

Hed do most anything

A quiet man

With words unspoken

Proved his love could not be broken

Out
of a half dollar

My father

Made my
mom a ring

Out of a half dollar

My
father

Made my mom a ring
