lyrics

Slight brush of your leg, concealed below
An intentional accident, well only you know
A whiff of chemistry lingers dangerously
You’re as forbidden now as you’ve ever been

Lydia, so playful yet so confident you are
Lydia, your vulnerability oh it doesn’t fool me

Your hand strokes my arm for all to see
I give you my eyes, you fall into me
The forbidding glares come from
everywhere
C’est la vie it just increases my dare

Lydia, so playful yet so confident you are
Lydia, your vulnerability oh it doesn’t fool me

Through sliding doors,
I searched for you outside
If I found you oh what might have been
The judgement of others,
would have forced us underground
Our passion is ours it’s not for others to see

Age has not weathered you,
not in the slightest I see
Through the same gaze,
your beauty encaptures me
Time cannot fade our concealed desire
But you’re as forbidden now as you’ve ever been

Lydia, so playful yet so confident you are
Lydia, your vulnerability oh it doesn’t fool me
Lydia, so playful yet so confident you are
Lydia, your vulnerability oh it doesn’t fool me
