Silver Ring

She's a curious girl
and it shows on her lips.
She tells me that people don't understand her

Her parents pray around the table
she doesn't see the point
She tells me that gods not paying attention

And I'm not sure just if she's wrong or right
She says that it's because I can't help but see
in black and white
But for some strange reason she feels safe next to me
She says that certain things were just meant to be.

I might be the only one
who ever listened to a word she said
but she says that she doesn't really mind

She wears a silver ring
on a chain around her neck
She tells me that it keeps me close to her heart

And I'm not sure just if she's wrong or right
She says that it's because I can't help but see
in black and white
But for some strange reason she feels safe next to me
She says that certain things were just meant to be.

After all this time
I've never seen her cry

And after all this time
I've never asked myself why

When I look at her
I see the sorrow in her eyes

I'll remember that look
until the day that I die.
