Slowly, the eastern Moon ascended
Night came and found him close beside me
And when our silhouettes were blended
I found the true love fate denied me
Although, I knew this was madness
And merely a prelude to sadness
I lingered, intents upon staying
Ignoring every word my heart kept sayin'
Taboo, taboo
Remember he is not for you
Taboo, taboo
There's someone that you're promised to
I knew that this was true
But I replied by holding him closer to me
And then, I cried, well why should such happiness be
Taboo, taboo, taboo
Taboo
