At the Dark End of the Street Lyrics

DARK END OF THE STREET
(Joe Tex version specifically, not the general lyrics)

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 alone

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

I know time is gonna take it's toll
We've gotta pay for this love we stole
It's a sin and we know it's wrong
But our love keeps comin' on strong

So steal away
To the dark end of the street

They gonna find us
They gonna find us
They gonna find us someday
(just keep it up)

You and me
At the dark end of the street

And when daylight hours roll around
And by chance we're both downtown
If we should meet, just walk on by
And promise me darlin' that you won't cry

('cause listen)
Tonight we'll meet
(and that's a promise, baby)
At the dark end of the street
You and me
