I remember when you said
"With this ring I thee wed"
Now you've gone, betrayed my trust
Rings of gold have turned to rust

Tears can't wash away the sin
Love that's dead can't live again
Knowin' there's no hope for us
Turns these rings of gold to rust

Plans we made just yesterday
Sands of time have chipped away
Now they've crumbled into dust
Rings of gold have turned to rust

Love before was clean and pure
Never more can I be sure
You will not betray my trust
Rings of gold have turned to rust
