rings of gold

Roy Orbison

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
Knowing there's no hope for us
Turns those rings of gold to rust

Plans we made just yesterday
Sands of time have chipped away
Now they've crumbled into dust

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
Rings of gold have turned to rust
