Forbidden Heart

[Slow Guitar intro] Huh hoooo ahhh I wasn't expecting to find you I certainly wasn't looking for love Because I was already convinced that I knew But I didn't know a thing [Guitar builds] [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed You were there, so alone... In a house so full of life Forbidden, I couldn't stay away I saw your light behind the blame You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaked around my heart Growing every day [Verse] You were there when I was broken My heart has seen so much pain Barely survived it, but not for lack of trying Sometimes I wondered if I hadn't, and this was all a game Afraid to lose you, convinced I didn't deserve it Something would take it away, you would surely leave Because why would anyone want this? Why would anyone dare to try? Twice I died when I thought you had gone Because I knew it was true That I'd never deserved you Just when I was close to understanding love Why would anyone dare to try? Twice I died when I thought you had gone Because I knew it was true That I'd never deserved you Just when I was close to understanding love [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed You were there, so alone... In a house so void of love Forbidden, I couldn't stay away I saw your light behind the pain You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaking 'round my heart Growing every day [Verse] I loved you completely in that instant More than any silly flame Not someone's backup, or just tool to use I was yours without the games And you were mine without the blame. I just wish there was more time Never enough in a single day Where have all the years gone by My heart still beats the same Just yesterday you held our little ones The gift of each, made me cry They were the sum of all my joy, ...but it was not just for them But because you had loved me It proved that it wasn't all just a lie I finally knew that I would always be with you That you were my one and only person And I'm finally starting to believe That maybe you feel the same [Guitar builds] [Verse] I'd shown up broken and afraid Looking to escape, seeking only time without the shame Fleeing from a monster, And chased by manipulation, a love that only existed when convenient I was there when they needed me They were never there for my pain Because they knew that they'd caused it And they'd never cared the same It was all that I ever knew of love, ...Even if it wasn't true They made me think that I knew, but I clearly hadn't a clue It was all just a ruse and I feared the same for you [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed I was there, so alone... In a life devoid of love Forbidden, you hadn't stayed away You saw a light behind the pain You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaked around my heart Growing every day [Chorus] In a life devoid of love Forbidden, you hadn't stayed away You saw a light behind the pain You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaked around my heart Growing every day [Verse] Then as I broke down in defeat alone Tears streaming down my face, The sobs racked my entire frame Suddenly your arms came And I cried more in your embrace You were still with me, You hadn't gone away Your love kept me going Amazed you felt the same You held me together, Even as my heart began to fray I cried more and gripped you tight Relieved that you were here to stay I loved you even more in that instant Stronger than any silly flame Not someone's backup, or just tool to use I was yours without the games And you were mine without the blame. Relieved that you were here to stay I loved you even more in that instant Stronger than any silly flame Not someone's backup, or just tool to use I was yours without the games And you were mine without the blame. [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed You were there, so alone... In a house so full of life Forbidden, I couldn't stay away I saw your light behind the blame You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaked around my heart Growing every day [Verse] I just wish there was more time Never enough in a single day Where have all the years gone by My heart still beats the same Just yesterday you held our babies The gift of each, made me cry They were the sum of all my joy, ...but it was not just for them But because it showed you had loved me It proved that it wasn't all just a lie You love me, and I, you Hard to believe that it was true I finally knew that I would always be with you That you were my one and only person And I'm finally starting to believe That just maybe you feel the same [Guitar builds] [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed We are no longer, all alone... We built a house so full of life Forbidden, we hadn't stayed away I saw your light and felt the same [Chorus] I met you, and it all changed We are no longer, all alone... We built a house so full of life Forbidden, we hadn't stayed away I saw your light and felt the same You bounced inside and took me over I wished I could always feel this way Not a love born in an instant Not a paltry fickle flame I would never feel the same Like a vine snaked around my heart Holding us together As if they'd always been this way [Guitar slows] Huh hoooo ahhh Thank you for loving me I can never be the same Forever more, and still I need another day My love is here to stay Our lives stretched before us... Never alone... ...not for a single day... My love is here to stay Our lives stretched before us... Never alone... ...not for a single day... [Song End]
