Back Street Affair Lyrics
Yes, I thought that you were true
When I fell in love with you
For you told me you always would play square
Then I learned you had a home
That your wife had not gone wrong
And our love was just a backstreet affair
Was too late to say no?
When I found you'd fooled me so
For as time passed on I'd learned so much to care
Though I knew I must atone
But my will was not my own
I'm paying for that backstreet affair
You didn't count the cost
You gambled and I lost
Now I must pay with hours of deep despair
You still can live your life
With a true, forgiving wife
But I can't live down our backstreet affair
The love I gave so free
Is left to torture me?
Though I know it's hopeless and it isn't fair
But, still I must go on
While the gossips spread are wrong
I'm paying for that backstreet affair
When I fell in love with you
For you told me you always would play square
That your wife had not gone wrong
And our love was just a backstreet affair
When I found you'd fooled me so
For as time passed on I'd learned so much to care
But my will was not my own
I'm paying for that backstreet affair
You gambled and I lost
Now I must pay with hours of deep despair
With a true, forgiving wife
But I can't live down our backstreet affair
Is left to torture me?
Though I know it's hopeless and it isn't fair
While the gossips spread are wrong
I'm paying for that backstreet affair
