Ring On Her Finger, Time On Her Hands

She stood before God, her family & friends & vowed that she`d never love anyone else again, only me As pure as her gown of white, she stood by my side & 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 CHORUS: She had a ring on her finger & 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 your hands When I add up all the countless nights she cried herself to sleep & all the broken promises I somehow failed to keep, I can`t blame her I`m the one who left her too many times alone In a 3-bedroom prison, she tried to make a home Her love slowly died, but the fire inside still burned & the arms of a stranger was the only place left to turn (chorus x2)
