She stood before God, her family and friends
And vowed that she'd never love anyone else again
Only me
As pure as her gown of white, she stood by my side
And promised that she'd love me till the day she died
Lord, please forgive her, even though she lied
Cause you're the only one who knows just how hard she tried
She had a ring on her finger and time on her hands
The woman in her needed the warmth of a man
The gold turned cold in her wedding band
It's just a
Ring on her finger and time on her hands
Ring on your finger when there's time
On your hands
When I had up all the countless nights
She cried herself to sleep
And all the broken promises
I said to her
Somehow failed to keep
I can't blame her
I'm the one who left her
Too many times alone
In a three-bedroom prison
She tried to make a home
Her love slowly died
But the fire inside still burned
And the fire inside still burned
But the arms of a stranger
Was the only place left to turn
She had a
Ring on her finger and time on her hands
The woman in her needed the warmth of a man
The gold turned cold in her wedding band
It's just a
Ring on your finger when there's time on her hands


She had a ring on her finger and time on her hands
A woman in her need and the warmth of a man
The golden code in her wedding band
It's just a ring on your finger when there's time
Time on your hands
