[Verse]
Dust devils dance on the blacktop road
Heat shimmers, a mirage untold
Like a fever dream, you came to me
Now all I see is what can never be
[Prechorus]
A whisper in the wind, a ghost in the hall
Haunting my days, answering love's call
[Chorus]
I will never hold you, no
I will never kiss you, so
Never be able to hold you, oh
Never be able to tell you I love you
Because you are forbidden
[Verse 2]
Sun bleeds red on the cotton fields
A heavy silence, nothing yields
This ache in my bones, a constant sting
For a love I can’t have, can’t let it sing
[Prechorus]
A shadow in the night, a flame in the rain
Burning in my soul, driving me insane
[Chorus]
I will never hold you, no
I will never kiss you, so
Never be able to hold you, oh
Never be able to tell you I love you
Because you are forbidden
