A gold ring
On pale skin,
On tanned skin
With jeans and a t-shirt,
Or a little black dress
With flats,
Or with heels
A gold ring
That you put on in the early morning,
That you smile at
Like a friend,
When it's time to part
Bath time
Bubble time,
This little gold ring
That will mark an era,
That leaves a small white trace
On tanned skin
And that you miss
As soon as you take it off.
