Ring On My Finger Lyrics

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 till the day I died
Lord, please forgive me even thought I lied
'Cause you're the only one who knows just how hard i tried

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 he somehow failed to keep
He cant blame me
Cause he's the one who left me too many times alone
In a 3-0 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
Oh, 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

Cover art for Ring On My Finger lyrics by Reba McEntire

She married someone who she vowed to love, but he didn't show her the love required to keep a marriage alive. She felt as if the only place she could satisfy her needs, was with a stranger. She was trapped in a love-less marriage.
