Private Lover

Once upon a time
In the city where I lived
I had a private, a private love
At a designated time
And a predetermined place
I'd meet my private lover
I had an awful lot to say
And so little time to play
With my private lover

People let me tell you
Why we'd meet this way
My private lover
Had another love, too
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love

On a stolen afternoon
In a suburban hotel
I'd meet my private, my private love
Those intimate moments
That few will never tell
Private lover
Ooh we shared a glass of wine
And the secrets on our mind
Private lover

People let me tell you
Why we'd meet this way
My private lover
Had another love, too
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love

Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love

There's no time to waste
As we lock in our embrace
Private, my private love
She loves me, too
I can see it in her face
Private lover
My joy turns to grief
You know she's got to leave
Private lover

People let me tell you
Why we'd meet this way
My private lover
Had another love, too
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love
Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love

Private, not to be disturbed
Private, my private love
