You told me things and I believed them all
you disappeared at times, but that didn't matter at all
mmm,Those lonely nights, I waited for your call
I didn't know it then,that you were someone's husbandMy desire for you is strong, but I won't do wrong
You're that lady's husband
My decency prevails, yes it does and it won't let me keep you, no
So I'm letting you go, letting you go
So I'm letting you go, letting you goYou satisfied a real desire in me without apologies
I still have those needs
Well I'm a lady with class and I know my desire will pass
This cannot occur because you are her husbandMy desire for you is strong and I won't do wrong
'Cause I know in my heart that you are her
I know, I know you are her husband
That's why I got to let you go
Desire says I should, but I say no, I say noI might not be all that I want to be
I've been a fool before, and I do things I deplored
But after all, if shirley's gonna be a fool
A fool for any man, that man has got to be my husbandMy desire for you is strong, and I won't do wrong
So I'm letting you go, letting you go
So I'm letting you go, letting you goBecause you are her husbandMy desire for you is strong and I won't do wrong
'Cause I know in my heart that you are her husband
I know, I know you are her husband
That's why I got to let you go
Desire says I should, but I say noMy body says I should, but I say no
Mister you say I should, but I say no
No, no, no, no, no, no
Desire says I should, I say no
