Wishbone Ash - The Ring lyrics

The grey mist ushers in the day A beggar walks along the king's highway Where does he come from? Who can tell? They can't escape the gaze they know so well The dream came true in far off lands He always knew she'd understand The march of time her love did wane Another's crime played on the lady's pain And now the ring shines in her hand Who's the stranger with her wedding band? With faith so true, robbed of his lands He always knew she'd understand
