Lyrics Back Street Affair - Van Morrison
You
didn't
know
I
wasn't
free
When
you
fell
in
love
with
me
And
with
all
your
young
heart
You
learned
to
care
It
brought
you
shame
and
disgrace
The
world
has
tumbled
in
your
face
Because
they
call
our
love
A
back
street
affair
They
say
you
wrecked
my
home
I'm
a
husband
that's
gone
wrong
They
don't
know
the
sorrow
That
we
had
to
bear
While
the
one
I
was
tied
to
Was
the
first
to
be
untrue
How
can
they
call
our
love
A
back
street
affair?
Well,
we
have
each
other
now
That's
all
that
matters
anyhow
While
the
judgment
of
gossips
never
fair
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
We'll
be
free
to
love
someday
When
all
the
talk
has
died
away
And
the
happiness
we
hoped
for
Then
we'll
share
And
I'll
climb
a
mountain
high
And
the
world
will
hear
me
cry
That
our
love
is
not
a
backstreet
affair
