Be honest with me, dear, whatever you do
Remember you're mine, dear, so always be true
Wherever you wander, on land or on sea
If you really love me, be honest with me

My poor heart would break, dear, if you were untrue
Asleep or awake, dear, I'll dream about you
Though you are my darlin', you're all that I see
If you really love me, be honest with me

Someday I'll return, dear, and make you my own
And how I will yearn, dear, when I'm all alone
I'll never forget, dear, your sweet memory
If you really love me, be honest with me

Be honest with me, dear, whatever you do
Remember you're mine, dear, so always be true
Wherever you wander, on land or on sea
If you really love me, be honest with me

If you really love me, be honest with me
