Lyrics

Honest James

Come back honest James, come back to your town

Take your shadow's mistress from our fertile ground

Never one to cry out, but it's gone on too long

Every song is empty without your friendly tongue

Come back honest James; your brother, he is here

He rode into the darkness and he needs you to be near

Why don't you just tell him what's inside your heart

Let love take over; you know the devil just ain't that smart

And I'll always love him...
