Tether - Lyrics - Damien Jurado

Come, o come Come away, Heather Who is the boy That you keep by your arm? That drags a cat Around by a tether Who is the boy That you keep by your arm? I must say He looks not familiar Is he a stranger From some other town? The townfolks say He looks quite peculiar They've never seen His kind come 'round Tell me, o tell me Will he be your husband? Will you, o will you Will you be his bride? Will you stay in the house And provide him with children? Are you sure He will not leave your side? When tears fill your eyes Whom shall you run to? You can run To the house on the hill In this house You will find me standing By a window Waiting for you
