Is There Somewhere We Can Go ©2017 Robert George BMI
Is there somewhere we can go Where a sweet and sinful kiss, Will be cloaked in midnight mist And our shadow will not show
Sometimes the richest hidden treasure Is a dark, forbidden pleasure
Is there somewhere we can dance Where there are no moon and stars, And the mirror in the bar Won’t give us a passing glance
Some nights it feels as if we’re floating Others, there’s a dark foreboding
How could I have fallen for a woman That I barely knew Sunrise tells me that I should feel guilty But I rarely do
So…
Is there somewhere we can stay So the city’s eyes can’t see, Where we set our kisses free When the daylight slips away
Sometimes the richest hidden treasure Is a dark, forbidden pleasure
Oh, I need you somehow So Honey, tell me now
Is there somewhere we can go Is there somewhere we can go…

The flow of the rhyme is consistent and works very well throughout the whole lyrical piece.
I feel that the song is about getting away from something. Like two people feel that they cannot find a serene seclusion.
Or maybe they are hiding from someone or something.
It comes across as a love song where someone in the story feels pressured to get away.
I enjoyed it!

Hi Couch,
This is strikingly poignant with the feel of a tragedy!

thanks folks...this is a retelling of Dark End of the Street. James Carr's version is a classic but my favorite is by The Flying Burrito Brothers on Guilded Palace of Sin.
