From the dark end of the street,
to the bright side of the road,
we’ll be lov ers once a gain,
on the bright side of the road.
Lit tle dar lin’, come with me.
Won’t you help me share my load,
from the dark end of the street,
to the bright side of the road?
And (Fmaj7)in to this life we’re born.
Ba by, some times,
some times we don’t know (C7)why.
And time seems to go by so (Fm)fast
in the twin kling of an eye.
So we’ll be
(Em7)lov ers once a gain
on the bright side of the road.
