Golden Ring Lyrics by Eric Clapton

Backless

0

[Verse 1]
He gave to you a golden ring
It made you happy, it made you sing
And I played for ya on my guitar
It did not last long, we did not go far

[Chorus]
And though the times have changed
We are rearranged
Will the ties that bind remain the same?

[Verse 2]
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]

[Verse 3]
Well I know that I have been here before
I have trod on your wings, I have opened the door
If I gave to you a golden ring
Would I make ya happy, would I make you sing?

[Chorus]
For the times have changed
They're rearranged
Do the ties that bind remain the same?
For the times have changed
They're rearranged
Will the ties that bind remain the same?

[Chorus]
For the times have changed
They're rearranged
Do the ties that bind remain the same?
For the times have changed
They're rearranged
Will the ties that bind remain the same?
