All of my dreams
Are within this ring.
All of my hope
Helps me cope,
All are in this ring,
So filled with my dreams.
Those two little letters
Let's me know everything'll be better.
The symbol in between
Means even more to me.
Because of what it means,
It gives me something on which to lean.
The ring gives me all my joy,
The ring that I got from a very special boy.
A boy who is turning into a man before my eyes,
And who always was, and always will be a surprise.
That one special night was one.
And I know the promise won't come undone,
Because he has promised me,
And I know nothing can come between.
All of my hopes, and all of my dreams,
Are all hidden safe within this nickel ring.
