[Verse 1]

We’re forbidden, or so it’s written
I wish that I could understand
Why love’s embrace is to procreate
And nothing deeper shall ever plant-

-Itself inside of our hearts (hearts)
At least if they can have their way
But you and me, if we got our say
See, we’d already be worlds apart (yeah)

But nobody here goes in or out
No free minds nor bodies allowed
I don’t mind the mounting, work and toil
But to lose you, see, I’d spiral out

But I can never show it (shhh)
Our guardians they can never know it
Despite a life devoid of crime
We’ve been imprisoned for this lifetime

[Chorus]

They say we’ve got it wrong
But I’ve known you far too long
They’ll come and take it from you
They’ll come and take it from me
