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 promise that I'd love him until 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
And a ring on my finger and time on my hand
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 he 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
In 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 is
Just a ring on your finger when there's time
On your hands
