is it legal to fall in love?
is it legal to claim such a love?
is it forbiddento be so in love?
is it something we must avoid?

if not then why do so many wish to hide
from something so sensual and explicit?

is it fair to those whom never breathed in such aroma
is it fair to those whom never tasted
is it fair to those whom never felt
the fragrance and sweetness and softness of such love

it is,legal and lethal
as we all know it to be

love can be very demandin'
as well as understandin'

i hope everyone has the chance
to enjoy the legalities
of such a powerful emotion

the only one you will be sentenced to
is to the one that claims your love
so go on and connect to that
special kind of love

i wasted no time
i claimed mine
before questions
of forbidden love ever aroused
