#1.
A#
We meet on the darkest street in town.
A#
We kiss when there's no one else around.
   D#
We go where no one knows our faces..
A#
standing in the shadows..sharing our embraces..
E                        A#m
on the darkest street in town.

#2.
A#
We love, a-but the world will never know.
A#
We hide, each and every place we go.
   D#
It seems that you and me, are always
A#
ducking into alleys, dimly lit hallways..
E                        A#m
on the darkest street in town.
