"After Dark" lyrics

"After Dark"

After dark you come slipping back to me
From the one who shares your name but scorns your love
While the one who has your name from scandal is free
But the whole world, my darling, looks down on me

Don't you think I have no pride or shame?
Don't you care that we're the gossip of the town?
Does our love to you just mean a past time lark?
Are you ashamed to be with me till after dark?

Here of late I can't help but doubt your love
So many things you've promised have turned to lies
You say I'm your love and you're all mine
I'm so tired of double talking your alibis

Don't you think I have no pride or shame?
Don't you care that we're the gossip of the town?
Does our love to you just mean a past time lark?
Are you ashamed to be with me till after dark?
