The dark end of the street
At the dark end of the street
That’s where we always meet
Hiding in shadows where we don’t belong
Living in darkness to hide our wrong
You and me
at the dark end of the street
You and me
I know time is gonna take its toll
We have to pay for the love we stole
It’s a sin and we know it’s wrong
Oh, but our love keeps coming on strong
Steal away
to the dark end of the street
They’re gonna find us
They’re gonna find us
They’re gonna find us there someday
You and me
at the dark end of the street
You and me
You and me
They’re gonna find us
They’re gonna find us
They’re gonna find us there someday
You and me
at the dark end of the street
You and me
You and me
And when the daylight hours roll ’round
and by chance we’re both downtown
If we should meet, just walk on by
Oh, darling, please, please don’t cry
Tonight, we’ll meet
at the dark end of the street
At the dark end of the street
