| Words and music by bob seger | |
| By the light of the moon | |
| To a 50's tune | |
| He pledged his love to her | |
| A girl so rare | |
| A girl so fair | |
| The girl for him for sure | |
| He could see himself getting up every mornin' | |
| For the rest of his life | |
| Just to look in those eyes so blue | |
| It was all he ever wanted to do | |
| She was all he'd ever need to see him through | |
| They were still in their teens | |
| When he gave her the ring | |
| They were married late one may | |
| And they moved into a little house | |
| On the far end of town | |
| Out by the big highway | |
| And all through the days | |
| And all through the nights | |
| The cars and trucks rolled on by | |
| And he slept through it all just fine | |
| Every night he slept just fine | |
| Sometimes she'd stare at the stars out the window | |
| Sometimes she'd walk `neath the moon | |
| Sometimes she'd sit there just watching him sleeping | |
| Hoping the dawn would come soon | |
| She'd done well in school | |
| She'd followed the rules | |
| And she'd always stood out from the rest | |
| She'd go off to college | |
| And work her way through | |
| Then move to some city out west | |
| She had it all planned | |
| She'd have her career | |
| She'd have all of the things that she'd always lacked | |
| She'd wake up one morning all packed | |
| And leave here and never look back | |
| Most of her friends thought it soon would be over | |
| Not many thought it would last | |
| Most seemed to think they were all wrong for each other | |
| And soon it would pass - soon it would pass | |
| Now twenty years have gone | |
| And her kids have moved on | |
| And she's still on the far end of town | |
| Her youngest she's livin' somewhere in l.a. | |
| And her oldest he works on a nearby farm | |
| Her husband comes home | |
| And they talk over supper | |
| He's usually the first to turn in | |
| Another day comes to an end | |
| Another day just ends | |
| And sometimes in the wee hours when the traffic dies down | |
| She'll hear the sound of some bird on the wing | |
| And she'll look out the window and she'll look at his picture | |
| But not at the ring not at the ring | |
| She never looks at the ring |
