Lyrics

ROOMMATES WITH RINGS (DUET)
Tina(Tufts)May/Martin Lide © 2009


You havn't touched me in forever -I quit sayin' I Love You
And for the life of me I can't recall - The last time you said it too
Lately life has been so empty - We just play the same sad song
Now politeness so heart breaking - makes us pretend there's nothing wrong (we're)

(CHORUS)

Roommates with rings -no longer lovers
Married to each other - bound together
But still so alone....
Days come and go - while we tip-toe
Around good-mornings and good-nights
We once lived a dream- but now it seems
We're just roommates with rings....


We used to talk about the future - but now we just don't talk at all
And we don't even try to hide no more - that passions' dead and gone
Sometimes I look down at my finger - and see a plain old golden band
To me it's just a cruel reminder - That sometimes love don't last (we're)

(CHORUS)


( REPEAT CHORUS.....)

We have furniture and things - some boxed up old dreams
We're just room mates with
rings ..... (whoa)
