The Dark End of the Street Lyrics by The Commitments

The Commitments

1991

At the dark end of the street
That is where we always meet
Hiding in shadows
Where we don't belong
Living in darkness
To hide our wrong
You and me
At the dark end of the street
You and me
I know time is
Gonna take its toll
We have to pay for
The love we stole
It's a sin and
We know it's wrong
Oh, but our love
Keeps coming on strong
Steal away
To the dark end of the street
You and me
They're gonna to find us
They're gonna to find us
They're gonna to find us
Lord, someday
You and me
At the dark end of the street
You and me
And when the daylight hour rolls around
And by chance we're both down the town
If we should meet
Just walk, walk on by, yeah
Oh darlin', please don't you cry
Tonight we meet
At the dark end of the street
