Oh,
Rute
My
life,
my
love,
my
heartbeat
Listen
to
me,
baby
Don't
let
the
shadows
cloud
what
we
have
Just
listen
I
see
the
way
you
look
at
me
today
With
questions
in
your
eyes
that
hurt
to
face
You
saw
a
chat,
a
misunderstanding
spark
And
now
you’
re
drifting
away
into
the
dark
I
swear
upon
my
soul,
I’
ve
done
you
no
wrong
I’
ve
been
faithful
to
you,
steady
and
strong
My
heart
is
yours,
it’
s
locked
in
your
hand
Why
would
I
build
a
house
just
to
burn
down
the
land?
Rute,
you
are
the
beat
inside
my
chest
Put
these
weary,
heavy
thoughts
to
rest
I
am
not
a
cheat,
I’
m
your
loyal
man
I’
ll
hold
you
through
this,
every
way
I
can
Don't
push
me
out,
don't
walk
out
the
door
I’
ve
never
loved
a
woman
like
this
before
My
life,
my
love,
my
only
heart
beat
You’
re
the
ground
beneath
my
weary
feet
I’
m
sorry
for
the
pain
that
you
feel
inside
I’
m
sorry
for
the
secrets
that
you
think
I
hide
But
look
at
my
face,
look
into
my
soul
You
are
the
missing
piece
that
makes
me
whole
If
you
keep
walking
down
this
lonely
lane
I’
m
suffocating
under
all
this
rain
I
might
stop
breathing
if
you
pull
away
I
need
you
here
with
me
to
light
the
day
Rute,
you
are
the
beat
inside
my
chest
Put
these
weary,
heavy
thoughts
to
rest
I
am
not
a
cheat,
I’
m
your
loyal
man
I’
ll
hold
you
through
this,
every
way
I
can
Don't
push
me
out,
don't
walk
out
the
door
I’
ve
never
loved
a
woman
like
this
before
My
life,
my
love,
my
only
heart
beat
You’
re
the
ground
beneath
my
weary
feet
Can
we
start
over?
Can
we
wipe
the
slate?
Before
we
leave
our
love
to
twist
of
fate
I’
m
reaching
out,
won't
you
take
my
hand?
Let’
s
walk
together,
let’
s
find
our
stand
I
promise
honesty,
I
promise
grace
There’
s
no
one
else
can
take
your
place
Rute,
you
are
the
beat
inside
my
chest
Put
these
weary,
heavy
thoughts
to
rest
I
am
not
a
cheat,
I’
m
your
loyal
man
I’
ll
hold
you
through
this,
every
way
I
can
Don't
push
me
out,
don't
walk
out
the
door
I’
ve
never
loved
a
woman
like
this
before
My
life,
my
love,
my
only
heart
beat
You’
re
the
ground
beneath
my
weary
feet
My
wife,
my
life,
stay
with
me
Don't
let
go,
Rute,
don't
let
go
I’
m
yours,
always
yours
Just
yours (
