Paying For That Back Street Affair Lyrics

PAYING FOR THAT BACK STREET AFFAIR Writers Jimmy Rule, Billy Wallace
Yes, I thought that you were true when I fell in love with you For you told me you always would play square Then I learned you had a home , that your wife had not gone wrong And our love was just a backstreet affair Was too late to say no when I found you'd fooled me so For as time passed on I'd learned too much to care Though I knew I must atone, but my will was not my own I'm paying for that backstreet affair [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/paying-for-that-back-street-affair-lyrics-kitty-wells.html ] You didn't count the cost, you gambled and I lost Now I must pay with hours of deep despair You still can live your life with a true, forgiving wife But I can't live down our backstreet affair The love I gave so free is left to torture me Though I know it's hopeless and it isn't fair But, still I must go on while the gossips spread are wrong I'm paying for that backstreet affair
