At the dark end of the street that is where we always meet hiding in shadows where we don't belong living in darkness, to right our wrong You and me At the dark end of the street You and me I know 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 But my love keeps coming on strong Steal away to the dark end of the street They gonna find us They gonna find us Someday they may come along and find us some lonesome day You and me At the dark end of the street You and me And when the daylight hours roll around And if by chance we're both taken out and taken down town But if we should meet before then, just walk on by Oh, sweet baby please, don't you cry 'Cause tonight we share the same dream At the dark end of the street You and me You and me You and me 3, 4 At the dark end of the street
