RINGS ON THE TABLE

	THEY MET AT A PARTY IT WAS YEARS AGO
	STAND BY ME WAS PLAYING ON THE RADIO
	A TOAST WAS MADE TO NEW LOVE, I DO'S FOLLOWED SOON
	ONCE AGAIN THEY'VE MET TONIGHT, BUT TO A DIFFERENT TUNE
	
	AS THEY SAT IN THE CORNER TRUTH SPOKE WITHOUT WORDS
	SHE LOOKED IN HIS BROWN EYES HE SAW THE BLUE IN HERS
	TWO HEARTS BREAKING SOFTLY IN THIS DARK CAFE
	SHE LEFT HER RING ON THE TABLE AND SLOWLY WALKED AWAY

	THERE WERE RINGS LEFT ON THE TABLE
	MARKING LOVE THEY THOUGHT WOULD LAST
	HER'S IS FOURTEEN CARAT
	HIS A WHISKEY GLASS
	HER MEMORY AND HIS VISION BOTH ARE FADING FAST
	AND THE RINGS LEFT ON THE TABLE ARE ALL THAT'S LEFT OF THE PAST

 	NOW SHE'S GONE AND HE'S ALONE IN HIS MISERY
	EACH SWALLOW THAT HE TAKES NUMBS THE PAINFUL MEMORY
	HIS GLASS AND HE ARE EMPTY AND STARTING TO SWEAT COLD
	HE LEAVES HIS RING ON THE TABLE NEXT TO HER BAND OF GOLD

	THERE WERE RINGS LEFT ON THE TABLE
	MARKING LOVE THEY THOUGHT WOULD LAST
	HER'S IS FOURTEEN CARAT
	HIS A WHISKEY GLASS
	HER MEMORY AND HIS VISION BOTH ARE FADING FAST
	AND THE RINGS LEFT ON THE TABLE ARE ALL THAT'S LEFT OF THE PAST
