The Ring
When we were kids We'd 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 wouldn't say a thing He'd walk outside, turn on his workshop light And he'd work on a ring
My dad earned the soldier's 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 He'd work on the 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 I've come to understand What's kept our family together Is worn on my mother's hand
For my mother he made a ring For my mother he'd 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
