Lyrics
I've no right to do what I'm doing
You aren't mine, but I'm faithfully falling
into your arms and the smell of your hair
into the dark where I don't care that
she's waiting for you with supper on the table
Soon as I am able I'll turn from this betrayal, but
Chorus 1
Don't ever leave me, see me as I am
all that is holy, doing what I can to
turn you away even when I am burning
Learning I am weak and I'll be returning
to your calling, faithfully falling
I've no right to do this to her
I took a vow, but now I can't help falling
Into your arms and the taste of your mouth
under the covers where there is no doubt, and
she will be hurting as I'm leaving her forever
Can I really do this? It's such a harsh betrayal, but
Chorus 1
Bridge
They'll say that we're unfaithful
but how could we have known
we'd find our hearts and souls in one another,
we'd finally feel we're home?
Chorus 2
Don't ever leave me, take me as I am
Our love is holy, knowing now I never can
turn you away when the truth is here burning
Learning love is strong, and I'll be returning
to your calling, faithfully falling
