Today she recieved ~ A shiny ring ~ From her special man. Instead of showing off her ring ~ She bowed her head and cried. Though her tears shed heavy ~ And trickled the long day through~ One never fell in happiness ~ Nor joy. Nor thankfulness. She cried because ~ She couldn't show the shiny ring ~ To her mom and dad. Or her family ~ Or her siblings ~ Nor all the friends she had. She didnt want the shiny ring at all ~ But couldn't give it back. And if she could ~ It would only make him mad. How could a shiny ring of gold ~ Placed around her finger ~ Make her want to cry? You see, he never set ~ A shiny ring of gold ~ Around her finger. He gave her a shiny  ~ Purple ring ~ And he put it around her eye.

A Shiny Ring
Today she recieved ~ A shiny ring ~ From her special man. Instead of showing off her ring ~ She bowed her head and cried. Though her tears shed heavy ~ And trickled the long day through~ One never fell in happiness ~ Nor joy. Nor thankfulness. She cried because ~ She couldn't show the shiny ring ~ To her mom and dad. Or her family ~ Or her siblings ~ Nor all the friends she had. She didnt want the shiny ring at all ~ But couldn't give it back. And if she could ~ It would only make him mad. How could a shiny ring of gold ~ Placed around her finger ~ Make her want to cry? You see, he never set ~ A shiny ring of gold ~ Around her finger. He gave her a shiny  ~ Purple ring ~ And he put it around her eye.
