Lefty Frizzell - Forbidden Lovers Lyrics

In the darkness of the night while the world around us sleeps
We keep a secret rendezvous, where people like us meet
Nobody knows us there, it's the lonely side of town
The only place we know to go to hide the love we found

(Forbidden lovers you and I)
Gone too far to say goodbye
Though we're tied to vows that hold us honor-bound

(Forbidden lovers I'll admit)
It's too late to call it quits
How can we give up the happiness we've found?

So we'll keep our rendezvous where the music's soft and sweet
And take the chance we might get caught every time we meet
But nobody knows us there, it's the lonely side of town
The only place we know to go to hide the love we found

(Forbidden lovers you and I)
Gone too far to say goodbye
Though we're tied to vows that hold us honor-bound

(Forbidden lovers I'll admit)
It's too late to call it quits
How can we give up the happiness we've found?

How can we give up the happiness we've found?
