She looks out the window
it's starting to rain
she can't take another day
passing the same way
she steps out the back door
looks around
mustn't be seen
mustn't make a sound
jumps into her shiny car
she knows she should turn back
but she's just a traveler
on a one way track

CHORUS
forbidden fruit tastes so sweet
wants to knock you off your feet
you may be strong you may be kind
but it'll make you leave your senses behind

she thinks of her husband
giving all he can
no matter how she treats him
he's a kind and forgiving man
she doesn't want to hurt him
it makes her feel so bad
but forbidden fruit's the sweetest thing
that she's ever had
this must be the last time
she can't go on this way
this will be the last time
until the next day

CHORUS

what is it about him?
she can't understand
he's not so good looking
there's nothing in his hand
but there's something in his eyes
something in his smile
that makes all the heartache
so worthwhile
their time for love is over
it hurts so much to part
she must return to her loved ones
and hide her aching heart
