Like the stars in the night
That I love to behold
You seem near in my sight
Yet so distant to hold
You're somebody forbidden for me to possess
So this love I've long hidden
I try to suppress

All night long, all day through
How I long for your kiss
I love you, how I do
Yet you don't know of this
There's somebody who found you
Before we have met
While her arms' still around you
I have to forget

Forbidden love, forbidden lips
Can't even touch your fingertips
Forbidden smile, forbidden face
Your love is such forbidden grace

If at last though I tried
Getting off of my mind
My heart still couldn't hide
My true feelings behind
All I ask is forgive me for loving you so
And don't look back as you leave me
It's forbidden, I know

Forbidden love, forbidden lips
Can't even touch your fingertips
Forbidden smile, forbidden face
Your love is such forbidden grace
Forbidden love, forbidden lips
Can't even touch your fingertips
Forbidden smile, forbidden face
Your love is such forbidden grace
