Honor Bound (1985)
Nothings been said, nothings been done
It’s hard to see a difference between the rising and the setting sun
But I can feel a change it’s there in her touch
It’s subtle but it’s deep and it hurts us both so much

Me because I’m losing her and her because she feels
She’s honor bound, bound by promise that she made so long ago
But I love her so much that I can’t let her know I know
Oh I know her good heart gave that promise honestly
Oh but how long can her honor keep her bound to me

She’s trying so hard but it’s taking its toll
Trying to keep her heart warm with a love slowly growing cold
Well who knows what is right when every things wrong
No matter what I do now it won’t matter when she’s gone

But how long can I keep holding her when she’s only holding me
Cause she’s honor bound, bound by promise that she made so long ago
But I love her so much that I can’t let her know I know
Oh I know her good heart gave that promise honestly
Oh but how long can her honor keep her bound to me

Nothings been said, nothings been done
It’s hard to see a difference between the rising and the setting sun
