You told me things and I believed them all
You disappeared at times, but that didnât matter at all
Mmm, those lonely nights I waited for your call
I didnât notice then
You were someoneâs husband
My desire for you is strong, but I do wrong
Youâre that ladyâs husband
My decency prevails, yes, it does
And it wonât let me keep you, no
So Iâm letting you go
Letting you go
So Iâm letting you go
Letting you go
You satisfied a real desire in me
Before I followed you, I-I still had those needs
Well, Iâm a lady with class and I know my desire will pass
This could not occur
Because you are her husband
My desire for you is strong and I wonât do wrong
âCause I know in my heart that you are hers
I know, I know you are her husband
Thatâs why Iâve got to let you go
Desire says I should, but I say no (I say no)
Shooby dooby dooby dooby doo doo
Mmm...mmm...
Shooby dooby dooby dooby doo dooby doo doo
I may not be all that I want to be
Iâve been a fool before and I did things I deplore
But after it if Shirleyâs gonna be a fool
A fool for him and then
That man has got to be my husband
My desire for you is strong and I wonât do wrong
So Iâm letting you go
Letting you go (Darling, I slide)
So Iâm letting you go
Letting you go
Because you are her husband
My desire for you is strong and I wonât do wrong
âCause I know in my heart that you are hers
I know, I know you are her husband
Thatâs why Iâve got to let you go
Desire says I should, but I say no, oh, oh (No, no, no, no, no, no)
My body says I should, but I say no (No, no, no, no, no, no)
Mister you say I should, but I say no (No, no, no, no, no)
Desire says I should, but I say no
