He gave to you a golden ring;
It made you happy, it made you sing.
And i played for you on my guitar;
It didn't last long, we didn't go far.
And though the times have changed,
We're rearranged.
Will the ties that bind remain the same?
You came around after a while;
Everyone said that i made you smile.
It all went well, and suddenly then
You heard that he would marry again.
Chorus
Well i know that i have been here before;
I've trod on your wings, i've opened the door.
If i gave to you a golden ring
Would i make you happy, would i make you sing?
Chorus
