I'm in Love With a Married Woman

We sit alone in the darkest corner

Waitress comes and takes our order

And she looks at us, so suspiciously

It's plain to see that we're lovers

Tryin' to be alone with each other

It's so hard for us to break free

She whispers softly, I love you

This ain't your average rendezvous.



'Cause I'm in love with a married woman

I don't care, I don't care who knows it

I'm in love with a married woman

On her left hand there's a wedding band

That she wears faithfully

And I thank God she's married to me.



No cheap hotel where we'll check-in

No other lives, we'll be wreckin'

With alibis to hide a cheaters kiss

'Cause if there's lipstick on my collar

You can bet your bottom dollar

It's the color she wears on nights like this

Every Friday here at five

I try to keep the fire alive.



'Cause I'm in love with a married woman

I don't care, I don't care who knows it

'Cause I'm in love with a married woman

On her left hand there's a wedding band

That she wears faithfully

And I thank God, I thank God

I thank God, she's married to me...
