I thought I'd savor the day I gave her this ring And I thought that all the world would sing Of the joys that our love would bring But the world didn't sing But the world didn't sing I'm not ashamed or too low but I'd like to think That I had the whole world on a string And now I'm not sure of anything Cause the world didn't sing Cause the world didn't sing And with these hands I pray to you to understand That this love that could last us until the end of time And with this heart I promised you we'd never part We'd start a fire to last us until the end of time But now this ring reminds me of the pain I'm in And all this time I've wasted has Been building up inside And now there's no rhyme or reason In trying to force a change of season in our lives The fire is out in our love It's time to say good-bye
