God forbid
Forbidden Love: Unveiling the Depths of Emotion in Gilbert O'Sullivan's God Forbid
Lyrics
Touch my face find a place
Inviting someone to explore an intimate connection, revealing oneself emotionally
That only you can see
Referencing a deeper, personal aspect that's exclusive and private between the two individuals
You don't need an appliance
Expressing that a genuine connection doesn't require external tools or devices
It isn't rocket science
Suggesting that forming a connection isn't overly complex or difficult
God forbid that it ever
Expressing a hope or desire that something won't happen in the future
Should be
Reinforcing the wish or hope expressed in the previous line
Read my lips there's no risks
Assuring there's no danger or threat associated with their relationship
Attached to what we do
Suggesting that their actions aren't risky or harmful
It may be that at times
Admitting a potential fault or error in behavior
I'm way our of line
Acknowledging a possible mistake or misstep
God forbid that meant I could
Expressing concern about losing the person due to the mistake
Lose you
Concern about the potential loss of the person
Only for a second have I ever felt
Reflecting on a brief moment of uncertainty or insecurity about the partner's love
Doubts about your love for me
Emphasizing doubts or worries about the partner's affection
Only for a second yet it seemed like an eternity
Highlighting that a short moment of doubt felt like an extended period of time
Take my hand make it land
Symbolic gesture of closeness or intimacy
Somewhere about your knee
Placing one's hand close to the partner, signifying comfort and intimacy
Whatever's going on we're doing
Asserting that their actions aren't morally incorrect or harmful
nothing wrong
Reinforcing the idea that their relationship is in a positive state
God forbid to think that
Expressing a hope or desire that something negative won't happen
We could be
Speculating about the potential outcome of their relationship
Falling out of love is something to behold
Describing the difficulty or significance of falling out of love
Even when it's not too steep
Even when the decline of love isn't drastic, it can still be painful
You can be as hurt as someone say falling
Comparing emotional hurt to a physical fall from a great height
A thousand feet
Highlighting the intensity of emotional pain
Tell you what what you've got
Acknowledging contentment with what the partner offers
Is all I'll ever need
Declaring satisfaction with the partner, indicating they are enough
It may not pay the rent
Admitting that the partner's qualities might not solve financial issues
It being heaven sent
Implying that the partner's qualities are seen as a gift from heaven
God forbid that that's all
Expressing hope that the partner's significance isn't limited to a singular aspect
You meant to me
Emphasizing the partner's importance beyond a single attribute
