Lyrics

[Chorus]
Now that you're gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the memories of what love could be
If you were still here with me
[Verse 1]
You took me from the shelter of my mother
I had never known or loved any other
We kissed after takin' vows
But that night on our honeymoon
We stayed in separate rooms
[Verse 2]
I wait in the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hopin' soon that you'll walk back
Through that door
And love me like you tried before
[Chorus]
Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the dream of what love could be
If you were still here with me
[Verse 3]
Oh, don't you know that I wait
In the darkness of my lonely room
Filled with sadness, filled with gloom
Hopin' soon that you'll walk back
Through that door
And love me like you tried before
[Chorus]
Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
All that's left of the dreams I hold
Is a band of gold
And the dream of what love could be
If you were still here with me
[Outro]
Since you've been gone
All that's left is a band of gold
