The poem describes a secret love affair between two people who meet at the "dark end of the street" to hide their relationship, which they know is wrong. They steal away together to the shadows, knowing they will eventually get caught but unable to resist their strong feelings for each other. The lovers ask each other to just walk by if they happen to meet in public to avoid getting into trouble for their forbidden romance.
