A Marble For A Ring

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some roads wind through the darkest nights Through chains and walls and losing fights When the whole world said to walk away One woman chose to stay She took a marble for a ring And made it mean like everything [Chorus] Here's to the heart that never quit The hands that held when none of it Made any sense but still held on Here's to the reason I carry on Through every storm you pulled me through The best of me is 'cause of you [Verse 2] You took a little girl and called her yours You loved her like you loved our boys You gave them roots and gave them wings And grandma hugs that heal all things Michelle, you put the world before yourself And never once asked for no help [Chorus] Here's to the heart that never quit The hands that held when none of it Made any sense but still held on Here's to the reason I carry on Through every storm you pulled me through The best of me is 'cause of you [Bridge] I know I broke what I should've held I didn't know the way to love you well But thirty-three years later I'm still learning Michelle, my heart is burning [Verse 3] We built a life from nothing at all A business raised from the ground up tall A home up on a hill where sunsets pour Like heaven's at our door You fought through hell and fought your heart I'm asking for another start Michelle, I see you and I'm not letting go I need you more than you could know [Chorus] Here's to the heart that never quit The hands that held when none of it Made any sense but still held on Here's to the reason I carry on Through every storm you pulled me through The best of me is 'cause of you [Outro] So see me like you used to do 'Cause all I want is you
