She Placed Her Ring On The Sill dishes Piled High she's On The Front Porch Step and The Air Smells Like Snow she's Thinking Of The Siege To Come and How She'll Miss Those Weekends In The Park with The Sun On Her Face, And Her Book By Her Side and That Lingering Taste That He Left On Her Tounge
he Lifts His Glass From The Table it Leaves A Ring Where It Stood he Sees A Light From A Window caress Her Like He Knows He Should he's Remembering The First Time He Kissed Her and How He'd Wake And Immediately He'd Miss Her like A Spell, With Each Breath he'd Taste Her Breath Like A Haunting irritating As Hell
do You Remember When You Prayed You'd Never See The Day someone Would Make You Feel This Way 'cause You Knew It Would Cut Right Through You once Inside, You Were Afraid They'd Find nothing To Hold On To
he Puts Her Ring On Her Finger she Brushes Back His Hair he Takes A Sip From His Glass she Inhales The Cold Fall Air they're Thinking Of The Long Road Ahead and The Strength That They'll Need Just To Reach The End and There In The Silence, They Search For The Balance between This Fear That They Feel and A Love That Has Graced Their Lives
