[Verse 1]
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 wrongs
[Chorus]
You and me
At the dark end of the street
You and me
[Verse 2]
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 listen
Steal away
To the dark end of the street
[Bridge]
'Cause they gonna find us
They gonna find us
They gonna find us someday
[Chorus]
You and me (You know they gonna do it)
Huh, at the dark end of the street
You and me
[Verse 3]
And when daylight hours roll around
And by chance, we're both downtown
If we should meet, just walk on by
And darlin', promise me you won't cry
[Chorus]
'Cause tonight we'll meet
Each other at the dark end
Of the street, you and me
