Don't go so far away love, try to settle down

For losing you would be more than I could bear

Tho' I'm tied to another, I hope someday she'll set me free

For I don't want a cheap love affair



I knew we loved each other the night that we first met

It just happened there was nothing we could do

Let me stay with my children 'til they can understand

That I love them and they'll know I love you too



Don't go so far away love, try to settle down

For losing you would be more than I could bear

Tho' I'm tied to another, I hope someday she'll set me free

For I don't want a cheap love affair



So darling please forgive me, don't give me all the blame

Tho' I know that it doesn't seem so fair

When I'm free I'll make you happy if you'll only wait for me

But I don't want a cheap love affair



Don't go so far away love, try to settle down

For losing you would be more than I could bear

Tho' I'm tied to another, I hope someday she'll set me free

For I don't want a cheap love affair
