The Ring

by Elizabeth   Dec 8, 2003


I looked on my shelf and saw my old jewlery box
I opened the lid and saw a ring i thought i had lost
It was a fake ring but it came from you
It is still special to me but makes me blue
I close my eyes and i think back to that warm day
And the look in your brown eyes chased my fears away
I still can remember when you gave the ring to me
You promised our love will always be
I opened my heart and soul to you
For i believed you give me a love that was true
I spent a wonderful week you telling me you loved me and you cared
And you said when i came home you will always be there
I have always had walls around my heart
For i been hurt and my hearts been broken apart
I trusted you and let you open my heart and my love
For i believed you was sent special to me from God above
When i left my heart ached and my eyes cried
I felt like i left a part of me with you and i wanted to die
I thought we would always be together and we would never part
Then i got the call that tore me up and broke my heart
I took the ring off and layed it down
When i returned it was no where around
I believe maybe it was Gods way of telling me your love wasnt true
I should put it behind me and stop loving you
So now i have closed that door to my past
And i know it really isnt worth looking back
Love is only love when its not a lie
So i can honestly tell my past love goodbye
