She stood before God, her family and friendsAnd vowed that she'd never love anyone else againOnly meAs pure as her gown of white, she stood by my sideAnd promised that she'd love me till the day she diedLord, please forgive her, even though she liedCause you're the only one who knows just how hard she triedShe had a ring on her finger and time on her handsThe woman in her needed the warmth of a manThe gold turned cold in her wedding bandIt's just aRing on her finger and time on her handsRing on your finger when there's timeOn your handsWhen I had up all the countless nightsShe cried herself to sleepAnd all the broken promisesI said to herSomehow failed to keepI can't blame herI'm the one who left herToo many times aloneIn a three-bedroom prisonShe tried to make a homeHer love slowly diedBut the fire inside still burnedAnd the fire inside still burnedBut the arms of a strangerWas the only place left to turnShe had aRing on her finger and time on her handsThe woman in her needed the warmth of a manThe gold turned cold in her wedding bandIt's just aRing on your finger when there's time on her handsShe had a ring on her finger and time on her handsA woman in her need and the warmth of a manThe golden code in her wedding bandIt's just a ring on your finger when there's timeTime on your hands
