hidden ring - john gallagher jr. lyrics

i have a ring hidden in the little black jewel box
i keep it stashed in my dresser behind my boxers and my socks
waiting for the perfect night to roll around
maybe dinner and a walk around the town
two negronis and some sparkling rosé
two corner seats at [bar one?] some [?] café

i had a plan, take your hand
lead you down the cobblestone
to a moonlit hudson river where we could be alone
the way we were in the summer of 2012
so long ago, but i remember it so well
i kinda wish you warned me you would leave me like you did
but even then, i probably wouldn’t have changed a thing

then i would treat you and me to a game of mini*golf
at the place our first date accidentally kicked off
and as i crouched on the ground to retrieve
the golf ball from the tin cup, well, that’s when you would see
me down upon the putting green, on bended knee
holding out that hidden ring
saying, “will you marry me?”

that night never came and now you’ve changed
and you don’t want that anymore
and what it is exactly that you want, well, i can’t say for sure
maybe even you yourself don’t really know
and so you’ve got to go and seek it on your own
i hope that you finally find your family and your home
tried my best to be them for you
but you’d rather be alone
i have a ring, could have been yours to wear and love
used to be my grandmother’s
now it’s just collecting dust
