It's a cheating situation

A stealing invitation

To take what's not really ours

To make it through the midnight hours

It's a cheating situation Just a cheap imitation

Doing what we have to do 

When there's no love at home



There's no use in pretending 

There'll be a happy ending

Where our love's concerned 

Sweetheart, we both know

We'll take love where we find it

Love and try to hide it

It's all we got

For we know they're not

Gonna let us go



It's a cheating situation

A stealing invitation

To take what's not really ours

To make it through the midnight hours

It's a cheating situation

Just a cheap imitation

Doing what we have to do

When there's no love at home



It's a cheating situation 

When there's no love at home
