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    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
