Not long ago, I was sleeping alone
I shared nothing with no-one & I didn't care
How could I know, how much I would grow?
And that life before you simply couldn't compare
I used to think most folks were crazy
Now we both know I was right
It's not just a piece of paper
Though, to some it just don't mean a thing
I hope that you'll sign it sooner than later
Let the dancing begin, Yeah, I know It's not just a ring
Before I met you, my heart was subdued
I gave up & pretended that I didn't care
But a man without nerve gets what he deserves
He thinks luck is the reason that life isn't fair
I used to think most folks were lazy
Now we both know they're just tired
It's not just a piece of paper
Though, to some it just don't mean a thing
I hope that you'll sign it sooner than later
Let the dancing begin, Yeah, I know It's not just a ring
Some say they don't' see the difference
It's all just the same as before
But you and I know that change can be slow
And that's not what a promise is for
It's not just a piece of paper
Though, to some it just don't mean a thing
I hope that you'll sign it sooner than later
Let the dancing begin
Let the dancing begin
Let the dancing begin, Yeah, I know... It's not just a ring
