Be Honest, Ruth Bryan!
Текст песни The Affair

Behind the house is a graveyard
I go there to think
In the mornings it's quiet
I guess even the dead need sleep

Don't tell me you love me
Even if it's true
I'd rather you were lying
When I know she waits for you

Go down to the river
Where your sister washed her hair
You say my name in a whisper
Bind us together

If you you see me comin'
Across the open land
When I tell you that I know
Don't make a desperate stand

So run
Before my dad gets his gun
This is no time to act brave

And we
Oh, we are not free
(We) are the ties we make

Swore an oath at the altar
Before you ever met me
You told me all boys falter
But you promised eternity

But I could never love you
When you left your ring behind
So go home to the city
Go home to your wife

So run
Before my dad gets his gun
This is no time to act brave

And we
Oh, we are not free
We are the ties we make

So run
Before I get a gun
There's no one here you could save

And we
Oh, we are not free
We are the ties we break
