18 Carat Love Affair Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I told you not to meet me here
I can't be seen with you whispering in my ear
I don't mind holding hands, but not in front of company
It's not the done thing 'round here, baby

[Verse 2]
Next weekend we'll be on our own
And we can spend some time together, all alone

[Bridge]
But if she knew what I was doing
She'd throw the ring back in my face
An 18 carat love affair
Would then be stamped "repair"
So we can't be seen in this place

[Chorus]
Love affair, an 18 carat love affair
I don't know which side I'm on
But my friend John said not to care
Love affair, an 18 carat love affair
She might write to Evelyn home
If left alone and in despair

[Verse 3]
Please don't leave any clues around
The last time we... she found some lipstick on the ground
I said an Avon girl had called free samples on display
She left her card but I threw it away

[Bridge]
But if she knew what I was doing
She'd throw the ring back in my face
An 18 carat love affair
Would then be stamped "repair"
So we can't be seen in this place

[Chorus]
Love affair, an 18 carat love affair
I don't know which side I'm on
But my friend John said not to care
Love affair, an 18 carat love affair
She might write to Evelyn home
If left alone and in despair
