Transcribed by me from the recording on YouTube.


RING OF CLOVER
Written by Margo Pendarvis and Denise Draper
As recorded by The Whites on “Forever You” (1984)

Across a field of mem’ry,
Pressed upon a yellow page,
There among the flowers,
It seems like only yesterday.

CHORUS: We made a ring, ring of clover,
Made a vow to love no other.
Diamonds I would never trade
For the ring of clover that we made.

Gone those sweet tomorrows,
Taken on the wind of change.
Still we will remember
The love we promised on that day. CHORUS

We made a ring (we made a ring), ring of clover (ring of clover),
Made a vow (made a vow) to love no other (love no other).
Diamonds I (diamonds I) would never trade (would never trade)
For the ring of clover that we made.

Diamonds I (diamonds I) would never trade (would never trade)
For the ring of clover that we made.

[Instrumental verse and hummed chorus]
