[Verse 1]
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?

[Chorus]
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you're giving me the sweetest taboo
Too good for me

[Verse 2]
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt like this before
There's a quiet storm that is you
There's a quiet storm
And it never felt this hot before
Giving me somеthing that's taboo
(Sometimes I think you're just too good for mе)

[Chorus]
You give me the sweetest taboo
That's why I'm in love with you (With you)
You give me the sweetest taboo
Too good for me
(Sometimes I think you're just too good for me)
