Does My Ring Burn Your Finger?
(Buddy Miller/Julie Miller)
Performed by: Lee Ann Womack
Track 12 - I Hope You Dance

When I gave you my heart
It was not what you wanted
Now the walls say your name
And the pictures are haunted

Does my ring burn your finger?
Did my love weigh you down?
Was a promise to much to keep around?

I remember your words and I can’t keep from crying
I could never believe that your kisses were lying
Was there something from the past
Buried in a shallow grave?
Did you thing that it was too far gone to save?

Please tell me baby
Please tell me now
You say that I should just go on
Now please tell me how

Now it’s just me and the night
And I’m so broken hearted
I just wait in the dark here
For my dearly departed

Does my ring burn your finger?
Did my love weigh you down?
Was a promise to much
To keep around?
