Intro: verse 1 It's hard for a back street affair to be easy. For each hour of happiness there's two hours of pain. We meet in the shadows because all that matters is spending the night with you once again. You leave with a promise you'll call me tomorrow but I never know when the next time will be. And each time you leave me I can't help but wonder was tonite the last night for you and for me Any which way you can, just love me any which way you can. My love's not the choking kind. You've got your life, and I've got mine, so if you can never be free. Darling I'll understand. But when you're lying next to me, just love me any which way you can. verse 2 Now you're on your way home and I'm all alone. I'm feeling as empty as this double bed. It's so hard to be strong, when I know I belong, in your arms but I'm lying here lonely instead. Any which way you can, just love me any which way you can. My love's not the choking kind. You've got your life, and I've got mine. If you can never be free. well Darling I'll understand. But when you're lying next to me, just love me any which way you can. Outro Any which way you can.
