In a pawn shop in Chicago
On a sunny summer day
A couple gazes at
The wedding rings there on display
She smiles and nods her head
As he said "Honey that's for you
It's not much but it's the best that I can do"
Golden ring with one tiny little stone
Waiting there for someone to take it home
By itself, it's just a cold metallic thing
Only love can make a golden wedding ring
In a little wedding chapel
Later on that afternoon
An older bride piano plays that old familiar tune
Well, tears roll down her cheeks
Happy thoughts run through her head
As he whispers low "With this ring I thee wed"
Golden ring with one tiny little stone
Shining there, now at last it's found a home
By itself, it's just a cold metallic thing
Only love can make a golden wedding ring
In a small two room apartment
As they fight their final round
He said "You won't admit it
But I know you're leaving town"
"Well, one thing that's for certain
You don't love me anymore"
She throws down the ring as she walks out the door
Golden ring with one tiny little stone
Cast aside like a love that's dead and gone
By itself, it's just a cold metallic thing
Only love can make a golden wedding ring
In a pawn shop in Chicago
On a sunny summer day
A couple gazes at
The wedding rings there on display
Golden ring
