The Ring
Gratitude in Tough Times: The Ring's Encouraging Tale
Lyrics
You thank me all the time
You express gratitude to me consistently.
But now it's my turn
Now it's my opportunity to thank you.
Cause truly a word of gratitude so due
Expressing genuine gratitude is necessary.
Can't go unheard
Appreciation shouldn't be ignored or unheard.
And it made me feel better
Your support made me feel better.
To have you there in my corner
I felt supported with you by my side.
My eyes cast so low
My gaze was downcast.
My face could not have been
My expression was visibly saddened.
Drawn longer
My face couldn't have looked more dejected.
I know you've been impressed
I'm aware you've been impressed by me.
You've seen me at my best
You've witnessed me at my best.
But oh, how it hurts
However, it's painful when I can't conceal my flaws.
When I can't hide my worst
It's difficult when my weaknesses are exposed.
Well thank-you for carrying on
Thank you for persisting and supporting me.
For playing with me and this song
Gratitude for participating in this song with me.
It made me feel better
Your involvement improved my mood.
We sat it out like some passing bad weather
We endured challenges together like passing bad weather.
My mind was like kid's boxing gloves
My thoughts were like children's inflatable boxing gloves.
The kind blown up with air
Similar to those blown up with air.
That are put away after play
They are stored away after play.
And get limp just lying there
These thoughts become lifeless when not in use.
But you knew they'd fill up again
However, you knew they would revive.
And you gave me your shoulder
You offered your support.
And I got up in the ring
I entered the metaphorical "ring" with your encouragement.
Because I had you there
Because I had your support.
In my corner
I faced challenges with you by my side.
And I got up in the ring
I faced difficulties because of your presence.
Because I had you there
I confronted challenges because you were there.
In my corner
In difficult times, I had your support.
