(Paying For That) Back Street Affair |
| 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 too 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 |
