(Don Goodman/Pam Rose/Mary Ann Kennedy)
|
I stood before God, my family and friends
|
And vowed that I'd never love anyone else again
|
Only him
|
|
As pure as my gown of white I stood by his side
|
And promised that I'd love him till the day I died
|
Lord, please forgive me even though I lied
|
'Cause you're the only one who knows just how hard I tried
|
|
I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands
|
The woman in me needed the warmth of a man
|
The gold turned cold in my wedding band
|
It's just a ring on your finger
|
When there's time on your hands
|
|
When I add up all the countless nights I cried myself to sleep
|
And all the broken promises you somehow failed to keep
|
He can't blame me
|
|
He's the one who left me too many times alone
|
In a three bedroom prison I tried to make a home
|
My love slowly died but the fire inside still burned
|
And the arms of a stranger was the only place left to turn
|
|
I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands
|
The woman in me needed the warmth of a man
|
The gold turned cold in my wedding band
|
It's just a ring on your finger
|
When there's time on your hands
|
|
I had a ring on my finger and time on my hands
|
The woman in me needed the warmth of a man
|
The gold turned cold in my wedding band
|
It's just a ring on your finger
|
When there's time on your hands
|
