Plain gold ring on her finger she wore

It was where everyone could see

It belonged to someone, but not me

On her hand she wore a plain gold ring

Plain gold ring's got a story to tell

It was one that I knew very well

In my heart it will never be spring

Long as she wears that plain gold ring

When night time comes calling on me

I know why I will never be free, oh no

I can't stop these teardrops of mine, oh no

I'm gonna love her till the end of time, all right

Plain gold ring's got but one thing to say

I'm gonna love her till my dying day

In my heart it will never be spring

Long as she wears that plain gold ring
