Golden Ring - Jace Everett

Crawling around on my hands and knees

Searching for something I can’t see

I regret it, and you can’t forget it

I turn every blade of the sun-burnt grass

Looking for something that was supposed to last forever

Forever and ever

Walking up and down this dead end road

Reaching out for your empty hand to hold

God it feels so cold

We’ve both walked a lot of lonely miles

Searching for another hopeful smile to see

Even though we’ve tried so many things

I just don’t know how we’re ever gonna get that golden ring

Curse my eyes and curse my mind

I’d trade them both if I could find, the one thing

We’ve both been missing

While I stare holes in the stoney ground

Thinking 'bout all that can’t be found

In your mind, is it moving on time?

Standing on the street where I used to live

Adding up things I ain’t got to give

Does it ever end?

We’ve both walked a lot of lonely miles

Searching for another hopeful smile to see

Even though we’ve tried so many things

I just don’t know how we’re ever gonna get that golden ring

But you don’t wanna walk no dead end road

You’re reaching out with your naked hand to hold

You’re saying, «Boy, let’s go»

We’ve both walked a lot of lonely miles

Searching for another hopeful smile to see

Even though we’ve tried so many things

Somehow you know, we’re gonna get that golden ring
