Jimmy Somerville Forbidden Love Lyrics

Forbidden Love Lyrics

Our love is like forbidden fruit

But we take each bit with pride not

shame



In this garden where the bitter poison

rots

But all the same...we shall



Stand so strong so proud

Give in to prejudice

Behind closed doors we have to kiss

But I long to hold your hand in the 

rain



Watching accepted lovers expressing

tenderness and joy

Makes an anger stir in me for

something I can't truly have



Like a young boy who's denied his

favourite toy

I just want to scream, just want to 

scream

And demonstrate my resistance

And demonstrate my resistance

Demonstrate my resistance



Our love is like forbidden fruit

But we take each bit with pride not

shame



In this garden where the bitter poison

rots

But all theh same every day brings

another tear

Behind each stare lies a hidden tear

Someday soon we will have our day

Until then our love forbidden stays

Our love forbidden stays
