	I don't care what your people say

	I don't want to be right

Verse 2:

	Am I wrong to fall
	So deeply in love with you
	Knowing I got a wife and two little children
	Depending on me too

	And am I wrong to hunger
	For the gentleness of your touch
	Knowing I got someone else at home
	Who needs me just as much

	[1: And] are you wrong to give your love
	To a married man
	And am I wrong for tryin' to hold on
	To the best thing I ever had
