Lyrics
Ring In Time
(Mike T. Lounibos, Sheila Capua, Lisa Aschmann, Bill Harris)
I was born to be loved ? waiting to be bought
Sitting in the window of a jewelry shop
Caught a young man?s eye as he was walking down the street
He gave me to his girl and she loved me
I was a promise ring ? fit like a glove
A symbol of their dreams
Made for their love
Proud to be worn ? destined to shine
I am a ring in time
Her Daddy gave her away one summer afternoon
The best man reached in and handed me to the groom
Candles were lit and they danced off me
As he slipped me on her finger - all the world could see
I was a wedding ring ? fit like a glove
A symbol of their dreams
Made for their love
Proud to be worn ? destined to shine
I am a ring in time
After 40 years or so - God decided to take her home
And as she was laid to rest ? I worried what was coming next
I was placed in a box ? sealed with a kiss
Would I be forgotten ? never to be missed
The velvet was soft ? but so dark inside
And just as I was losing hope I was given new life
Now I?m a mother?s ring ? fit like a glove
Handed down to her daughter ? for a lifetime of love
Proud to be worn - destined to shine
I am a ring in time
Proud to be worn ? and forever I will shine
I am a ring in time
