Forbidden

I remember the day, I first saw your face
I remember the way, my heart was displaced
You saw me too, and we grew closer
Feelings ensued, at the risk of exposure
Our love is forbidden, by the vows we are keeping
Our love must be hidden, but our hearts are not sleeping
The world would abide, what's burning in us
But we choose to hide, to protect those we must
I think of you, way more than I should
I think of us too, wishing we could
We linger too long, when your path crosses mine
Both knowing it's wrong, to cross over the line
Our love is forbidden, by the vows we are keeping
Our love must be hidden, but our hearts are not sleeping
The world would abide, what's burning in us
But we choose to hide, to protect those we must
I'll love you in dreams, where no one can see
I'll love you it seems, until we are free
If souls return, when lives are through
Then my concern, to find you much sooner
Our love is forbidden, by the vows we are keeping
Our love must be hidden, but our hearts are not sleeping
The world would abide, what's burning in us
But we choose to hide, to protect those we must
