Lonely nights got me dreaming of

The days when I'll be so in love

But my clock is ticking loud enough to keep me awake

I can't even dream right for heaven's sake

And I'm tellin' you this so you will know

All of the things that lonely girls go through

Maybe you will stop wasting my time

And allow me the opportunity to shine on you

Because...

[Chorus]

I want to be that ring you wear with everything

I want to be the tape you have to rewind

Hear me just one more time

Just like a squirrel chasing a nut I'll go out on a limb

And if you think that's funny, I got a million of them

Anything to keep you laughing out loud

And most importantly, to make you proud

Singing songs like "Hambone, hambone!"

(Hambone, have you heard?)

Mama's gonna buy you a big fat mockingbird

If that birdie don't (if that bird don't sing)

Mama's gonna sue for breach of contract

Then have the dough to buy that ring, 'cause...

[Chorus]

I want to be that ring you wear with everything

I want to be the tape you have to rewind

Hear me just one more time

[Chorus]

I want to be that ring you wear with everything

I want to be the tape you have to rewind

Hear me just one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time

I want to be that ring that you wear with everything

The tape that you rewind and hear me one more time
