Taboo to Love

Stevie Wonder

Are you telling me you feel

Like you have never felt

Ut Oh, my heart

Don't you know those famous words

Be seen but not heard

Taboo to love

Are you telling me your eyes

Met hers to your surprise

But why, my heart?

How loud must you hear me say

Have fun but don't play

Taboo to love

Where's your lantern or candlelight

So to guide you through hidden spaces

Though its said truth unveils all lies

Feelings can't be left to roam

So you say you've lost your head

But you use your heart instead

Beware of love

This is not like you at all

Who vowed to never fall

Taboo to love, taboo to love

Taboo (background)

To love, taboo to love

Taboo (background)Where's your raincoat and over-boots

To protect you in stormy weather

Though its said when you walk in truth

Love can bring you no harm

So you've made up in your mind

You'll leave your fears behind

So brave my heart

I guess your heart has made you see

Its better to be free

No taboo to love

I guess your heart has made you see

Its much better to be free

No Taboo to love

No taboo to love

Taboo (Background)

To love, no taboo to love

Taboo (Background)

To love, no taboo to love

Taboo (Background)

To love, no taboo to love

Taboo (Background)

No taboo to love
