I stood before God, my family and friends
And vowed that I'd never love anyone else again
Only him
As pure a s my gown of white
I stood by his side
And promised that I'd love you
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
Chorus:
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
Chorus (2x)
