And the happiness we've hoped for then we'll share
They say you wrecked my home, I'm a husband that's gone wrong
We'll be free to love someday when all the talk has died away
We'll just be brave and strong, then someday they'll see they're wrong
So let them call our love a back street affair
They don't know the sorrow that we've had to bear
I'll climb a mountain high and the world will hear me cry
And yet they call our love a back street affair
Why the judgment of gossip's never fair
It brought you shame and disgrace, the world has tumbled in your place
We have each other now, that's all that matters anyhow
For the one that I'm tied to was the first to be untrue
Because they call our love a back street affair
