Ring

When I saw you from across the bar
It occurred to me we never could be
Though I hadn't thought that far
And though I hadn't thought it
It kept floating back upwards
Oh, never kept on ringing, ringing
Though I never use the word

It's a ring
I'm running around it, babe
It's a ring
It's safety and dangerous
It's the frequency we hear in our sleep
It's a ringing thing

Never melted under forever anyway
Highway, oh, highway
We play, and play, and play
Every day is another date and a date is a show day
We leave them all a-ringing, ringing
On our hands we keep them safe

It's a ring
I'm running around it, babe
It's a ring
It's safety and dangerous
It's a frequency we hear in our sleep
It's a ringing thing

Oh, I follow
Oh, I lead
Oh, I follow
We always do both things

It's a ring
I'm running around it, babe
It's a ring
It's safety and dangerous
It's the frequency we hear in our sleep
It's a ringing thing
