There is no way to keep it on
 
If I don’t watch it will be gone
 
It just falls off everyday
 
It’s so loose it will not stay
 
.
 
It means so much that little thing
 
But is it still a wedding ring
 
The vows were broken months ago
 
She cut me loose and let me go
 
.
 
But my promise was so strong
 
My heart won’t believe she’s gone
 
But that ring won’t let that be
 
It keeps falling off of me
 
.
 
More than half of me is gone
 
My bony fingers seem so long
 
I’ve changed so much from head to feet
 
My aching heart won’t let me eat
 
.
 
I’ll put a little tape on it
 
Just enough to make it fit
 
I don’t want to see it go
 
It’s all I have that I still know
 
.
 
I’ll have it with me when I die
 
I said I would and I’ll try
 
I’ve tried to keep so many things
 
But all I have is this ring
