Bryan Dunn - Ten Dollar Ring lyrics
[Bryan Dunn - Ten Dollar Ring lyrics]
I came back to town for the wedding
The last of the Stephenson brides
The talk died down to a whisper
When they let me inside
I saw you there at the table
You smiled and you waved your right hand
Then they called for a toast and
They all raised their glasses again
And there's a ten dollar ring on your finger
There's a five dollar ring in my hand
There's a ten dollar ring on your finger
And that five dollar ring went
Back in my pocket again
I almost laughed when I saw you
In that suit that you borrowed from John
The pants are too short and the
Sleeves are a little too long
I only smiled but I tell you
That I really wanted to cry
Cause I'm here at this table with
Somebody else by my side
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
Cause you never asked for my hand
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
Cause I never thought that I'd
Ever see you again
No need to impress just a second hand dress
And something that's borrowed or blue
It'd be all right if you didn't wear white
As long as I'm there next to you
I left right after the wedding
And I didn't say anything
Then I went to the river and I
Threw in that five dollar ring
I looked for you the whole damn evening
So much that I wanted to say
But whenever I need you, baby
You just run away
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
And you didn't even shake my hand
There's a five dollar ring in the river
And believe me, my darling
You'll never see me again
The last of the Stephenson brides
The talk died down to a whisper
When they let me inside
I saw you there at the table
You smiled and you waved your right hand
Then they called for a toast and
They all raised their glasses again
And there's a ten dollar ring on your finger
There's a five dollar ring in my hand
There's a ten dollar ring on your finger
And that five dollar ring went
Back in my pocket again
I almost laughed when I saw you
In that suit that you borrowed from John
The pants are too short and the
Sleeves are a little too long
I only smiled but I tell you
That I really wanted to cry
Cause I'm here at this table with
Somebody else by my side
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
Cause you never asked for my hand
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
Cause I never thought that I'd
Ever see you again
No need to impress just a second hand dress
And something that's borrowed or blue
It'd be all right if you didn't wear white
As long as I'm there next to you
I left right after the wedding
And I didn't say anything
Then I went to the river and I
Threw in that five dollar ring
I looked for you the whole damn evening
So much that I wanted to say
But whenever I need you, baby
You just run away
There's a ten dollar ring on my finger
And you didn't even shake my hand
There's a five dollar ring in the river
And believe me, my darling
You'll never see me again
