The Ring you gave to me
was not of the pure gold
the diamond was so big
an imitation bold
but one thing that is sure
it is your love for me
it is so very pure
that's good enough for me

I know you meant it well
and all you could afford
it was the same to me
it's you that I adored
no money in this world
can buy a love like this
a precious thing indeed
and all that I could wish

Now that the years gone by
you can afford a ring
pure gold and diamond real
that does not mean a thing
for what is real for me
is that your love is true
and I will always say
I'm so in love with you
