You bid me goodnight as you walk away

You say that you'll see me the very next day

I take a breath but it was taken away

How many times must I hear your words replay?

And they all say...

Our love is great, well, is it?

How can we love if we are forbidden?

I'm sorry, but with you I am smitten

They say the clouds are as soft as kittens

And they see us kissing...

They tear both of us apart

Anything to break my fragile heart

Their voices are bitter and tart

They'll tell us to depart

While they're ripping a masterpiece of beautiful art...

They'll bow their heads and close our eyes

As they lay us in the earth, they'll start to cry

Oh, they are traitors for making us die

They'll do anything to make them smile

And their eyes dry...
