V1
[Bm] [Em]
Everyone knows you belong to another,
[Bm] [Em]
Spinning your magic for him and no other,
[F#7] [Bm]
Still, I've been content to be part of this fantasy,
[F#7] [Bm]
Part of this game that I play.

[G#m] [F#7]
Though it's forbidden and you'll love me never,
[G#m] [Em]
I'll keep my love hidden and love you forever,
[Bm] [F#7]
Through countless eternities you will be mine,
[Em] [F#7] [Bm]
In these forbidden games that I play.
V2
[Bm] [Em]
Though it's forbidden for my arms to hold you,
[Bm] [Em]
And though it's forbidden, my tears must have told you,

That I hold you secretly each time we meet,
[B7] [Em]
In these forbidden games that I play.
V3
[Bm] [Em]
Though it's forbidden in dim quiet places,

My bittersweet ecstasies come to me here,
[B7] [Em]
In these forbidden games that I play
