I stood before 
God, my family and friends
And vowed that 
I'd never love anyone else again
Only himAs pure as my gown of white, 
I stood by his side
And promised that 
I'd love him till the day 
I diedLord, please forgive me even though 
I lied'Cause 
You're the only one who knows just how hard 
I triedI 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'
Cause 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
