This is what I think

When you marry someone, you wear your ring on your ring finger of your left hand. I thinks it's about a boy who really likes a girl. The girl has a boyfriend, who's not so good to her (Watch his right hand slip) (and is cheating on her?)

Anyway. The boy still has a chance because her left hand's free (no ring)

Can it be something like this? What do you guys think? :)

My Interpretation

@blaadje - yes, I think you are correct - If you look at the remaining lyrics, your theory is consistent.
