Girl you kiss me like a woman though you're barely seventeen

There's no doubt you're old enough to satisfy

But I know they'd call me guilty if I loved you all the way

Why does heaven let forbidden angels out to play

Forbidden angel I know I must let you go

While everything in me says love you my better judgement tells me no

I love you so I know I can wait to unlock heaven's door

When my forbidden angel is not forbidden anymore

[ fiddle + steel ]

You're so warm so sweet and eager to try your wings and fly

But someday you'll understand the way I feel

So just keep your halo shinin' and I'll love you all the more

When my forbidden angel is not forbidden anymore

Forbidden angel I know...
