Cheap Love Affair Lyrics - The Stanley Brothers

Don't go so far away love, try to stay around 

For losing you would be more than I could bear 

Though 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 

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

Though' 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
