Lyrics
[Verse 1] The barn light flickers like a lazy firefly Moon’s hangin’ low in the denim sky Your hand in mine, a comfort I crave Dirt under our boots, where our future's paved No diamonds here, just the earth and sky above But I’ve got my roots, and I’ve got your love [Pre-Chorus] A tin band shines in the glow of the night Simple and plain, but burnin' ever so bright No gold to spare, no fortune to hold But it feels so right, a story to be told [Chorus] A ring made of tin, a symbol true The greatest thing, me and you It ain’t the metal, so cold and bare It’s the love it brings, beyond compare No shiny stones, no fancy hue to see But it’s perfect ‘cause it’s with you and me [Verse 2] We’ve got fields of dreams and a rusty old truck Two hearts that bloom where the soil’s stuck The cows don’t care, about carats or price The crickets still sing, beneath the starry ice Who needs a fortune when you’ve got this ring, A simple promise, a beautiful thing? [Bridge] Some chase the glitter, the sparkle and shine But true love's a river, a timeless design A heart made of gold, a spirit so free That's the real treasure, for you and for me [Pre-Chorus] A tin band shines, it don’t need a crown Just a simple circle, that won’t let us down It’s the promise we’ve got that won’t wear down In this small town. [Chorus] A ring made of tin, a symbol true The greatest thing, me and you It ain’t the metal, so cold and bare It’s the love it brings, beyond compare No shiny stones, no fancy hue to see But it’s perfect ‘cause it’s with you and me [Outro] A ring made of tin, just a simple band The truest love, in this promised land.
