Love in the Afternoon

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's getting dark outside

Daytime is done.

The lights along the river come up

One by one.

Let's make love again

We got time.

I am yours

You are mine.

It's getting dark outside

I have to go.

Don't want my husband

Or my friends to know.

Zip up my dress ...

I can't find my shoes.

Don't fall in love with me

Too much to lose.

The kids are home by now

Have to think fast.

I really think this afternoon

Must be the last.

Don't say anything,

Don't turn on the light.

Thanks for loving me,

Call you tonight.
