[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?
