Percy Sledge › Lyrics › 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 that time's gonna take it's 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 going to find us
They're going to find us
They're going to find us, ohh someday

You and me
At the dark end of the street, you and me

And when the daylights are [Incomprehensible]
And by chance we walk downtown
If we should meet, just walk on by
Ohh darling, please don't cry

Tonight we'll meet
At the dark end of the street
