Our love is like forbidden fruit But we take each bite 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 Just demonstrate my resistance Demonstrate my resistance Our love is like forbidden fruit But we take each bite with pride not shame In this garden where the bitter poison rots But all the 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 is like forbidden fruit Our love is like forbidden fruit Our love is like forbidden fruit Our love is like forbidden fruit Forbidden fruit, forbidden fruit
