She calls my name
And I run towards her even though
I know it ain't right
She wears the ring he gave her in the spring
As she makes love to me, but she ain't mine
Oh, can't build a house upon the sand
Can't take her from another man
I'm just barely climbin' this hill
A love so guilty, it's breakin' my will
How can I keep my conscience clear
When I been buildin' on another man's tears?
Does he suspect? His heart's a mess and I'm to blame
The shame, it kills me
She keeps us both, and I know he gets the most
And my father didn't raise his boys to wreck a happy home
Can't build a house upon the sand
Oh, I can't take her from another man
I'm just barely climbin' this hill
A love so guilty it's breakin' my will
How can I keep my conscience clear
When I been buildin' on another man's tears?
And his tears gon' wash my house away
Oh, foundations never hold
I won't take somebody else's love
And keep it for my own
I'm just barely climbin' this hill
A love so guilty it's breakin' my will
How can I keep my conscience clear
When I'm just buildin' on another
Buildin' on another
Buildin' on another man's tears?
