Lyrics:
On this summer day
there's forbidden fruit and it has your taste
and it has your taste
on this mountainside
I've been told to wait
I’ll be here night and day
Longing
What if I told you my love was lost in a game we’re playing
If I told you my heart would stop
to hear you say
You want me
my lover
you take my breath away
You choose me
you’d suffer
to take my pain away
On this summer day
theres forbidden fruit and it has your taste
and it has you taste
on this mountain side
ive been told to wait
i’ll be here night and day
Longing
What if I told you my love was lost in a game we’re playing
If I told you my heart would stop
to hear you say
you want me
my lover
you take my breath away
You choose me
you’d suffer
to take my pain away
Longing x3
you want me
my lover
You choose me
you’d suffer
you’d suffer
You want me
my lover
You choose me
