Question about a song...

Original post by Toucan311

Do you know the song that has the lyrics 'now that you're gone, all I have is a band of gold... all thats left of the dreams I hold is a band of gold... blah blah blah'

What in the hell is that song about? I've always wondered. Someone please enlighten me. Thanks.

Ah HA. We have an answer:

The debate about the lyric is easily resolved by the verse and bridge which were excised from the 45 version (but appears in full on Payne’s Unhooked Generation best-of), viz.:

“Now that you’ve 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 memory of our wedding day
And the night I turned you away”

and:

“Each night I lie awake and I tell myself
The vows we made gave you the right to have a love each night.”
