Bobby got down on his knees   Said "Becky would you marry me"   He slipped that ring up on her hand      She ran home to show her mom   Said "Look here what I've got on"   And that diamond sparkled on the band      She looked her daughter in the eye   Said "Girl you are so young"   I just pray that in your heart   You know that he's the one      'Cause without love it don't mean a thing   It's just a rock on a golden ring   You could take it down to an old pawn shop or toss it in the sea   'Cause without love it don't mean a thing      Five years down a rocky road   Bobby had some doubts you know   He said "I'm not sure I'll feel the same"      She packed up her old suit case   Note said "Bobby, here's your space   I can't stay if your heart's really changed"      He found the ring beside the pen   And tears filled up his eyes   It read, P.S., don't you realize      That without love it don't mean a thing   It's just a rock on a golden ring   You could take it down to an old pawn shop or toss it in the sea   'Cause without love it don't mean a thing      He found her at her mama's house   Said "Girl you gotta change your mind"   You were talking about your ring   But I'm talking about my life      'Cause without love it don't mean a thing   You're my rock, here's your golden ring   I'm begging you to take it back, baby now I see   That without love it don't mean a thing   Oh, now without love it don't mean a thing, without love
