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
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
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
'Cause 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
