Lyrics for 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, Lord, someday You and me At the dark end Of the street 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, don't cry Tonight, we'll meet At the dark end Of the street
