In a place where no one knows us we hold secret randezvous
We laugh and joke as though it's right to do the things we do
You're someone else's darling but when I'm holding you so close
Why do I always feel the best when my conscience hurts the most

Why do I get such a thrill from loving you so much
I know you can't be mine to keep but just to sometimes touch
In a place where no one knows us our love can't be exposed
Why do I always feel the best when my conscience hurts the most
[ fiddle - steel ]
Why do I get such a thrill...
