When I think of you and I think of you
Each and every day
I can see us making love
Skin on skin
An ever unfolding bouquet
Well I wrestle with my stupid heart
And it’s tearing, tearing me apart
No matter how I feel
Or how much I want it to be real
It is a forbidden love
My soul has opened wide
But it just can’t be justified
It is a forbidden love
When I think of us and I think of us
Every time I draw a breath
I want to be inside of you
Tooth and nail
From now until my death
Well I know it’s all a fantasy
‘Cause it will never, it will never be
There are some rules that can’t be broken
No matter how bad we want them broke
There are some laws that can’t be flouted
They need to be as solid as some old oak
When I dream of you and I dream of you
Each and every night
Our bodies are entwined
Bleeding into one
Smoldering like anthracite
Yeah I can’t help the way that I feel
Or just how much, how much I want it to be real
