"The Sweetest Taboo" lyrics written by Helen Folasade Adu:

If I tell you/If I tell you now/Will you keep on/Will you keep on loving me/If I tell you/If I tell you how I feel/Will you keep bringing out the best in me/You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo/You give me, you're giving me the sweetest taboo/Too good for me/There's a quiet stormand it never felt like this before/There's a quiet storm/that is you/There's a quiet stormand it never felt this hot before/Giving me something that's taboo/(Sometimes I think you're just too good for me)/You give me the sweetest taboo/That's why I feel love in with you (with you)/You give me the sweetest taboo/too good for me/(Sometimes I think you're just too good for me)/I'd do anything for you, I'd stand out in the rain/Anything you want me to do, don't let it slip away/There's a quiet stormand it never felt like this before/There's a quiet stormI think it's you/There's a quiet stormand i never felt this hot before/Giving me something that's taboo/You give me the (you give me, you give me the) sweetest taboo/That's why i'm in love with you (with you)/You give me, keep giving me the sweetest taboo/Too good for me/You've got the biggest heart/Sometimes i think you're just too good for me/Every day is christmas, and every night is new year's eve/Will you keep on loving me/Will you keep on, will you keep on/Bringing out the best in me
