.Back Street Affair Songtext
von Billy Walker

You didn′t know I wasn't free
When you fell in love with me
And with all your young heart you learned to care
It brought you shame and disgrace
The world has tumbled in your face
For they call our love a back street affair


They say you wrecked my home
That I′m a husband that's gone wrong
They don't know the sorrow that we have to bear
For the one that I′m tied to
Was the first to prove untrue
Yet they call our love a back street affair

We have each other now
That′s all that matters anyhow
For the judgement of gossip's never fair
We′ll just be brave and strong
And someday they'll be wrong
Let ′em call our love a back street affair


When the mist rolls away
We'll be free to love someday
And know happiness that God meant us to share
I′ll climb a mountain, dear
Shout so the world can hear
That our love is not a back street affair
