My Gold Ring - The Brothers Figaro
Walked the island crossed the threshold
Danced a jig and a Vienese waltz
Tipped my hat
To say goodbye to the life I knew
Now it's two by two
Drinking wine with the paragon of animals
Toast the bride with her blushing face
Say the words but skip the meaning
End the Pentacost
With your fingers crossed
My gold ring
My gold ring
Doesn't mean much anymore
My gold ring
My gold ring
I don't remember what for
I gave you comfort
I gave you flowers
Gave you more than a man should give
Gave you love in the midnight hour
Now that diamond ring
It don't mean a thing
Yea you tried to tell me
But I didn't listen
Worried looks and faraway eyes
Seems you found what you'd been missing
With some other guy
And no reasons why
My gold ring
My gold ring
Doesn't mean much any more
My gold ring
My gold ring
I don't remember what for
Feelings of rage across my mind
Counting the hundred times you lied
Tennessee gin and Johnny
Walker help me forget
Yea you tried to tell me but I wouldn't listen
Worried looks and faraway eyes
Seems you found what you'd been missing
With some other guy
And no reasons why
My gold ring
My gold ring
Doesn't mean much anymore
My gold ring
My gold ring
I don't remember what for
My gold ring
My gold ring
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
