Jimmy Somerville – 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
