Slip Away lyrics

I guess we never realised just how difficult this would be
And you're sick of all the white lies when you wanna seek a rendezvous with me
You said your family would never take me as I am
And there's nothing we can do to make them understand

Why forbidden love, girl thats what you are
I won't give you up, when we've come this far
Your forbidden love in the eyes of those who don't see
We are who we are why won't they let us be

How can we let go and give it up like this
There's gotta be another way
We've gotta be strong and together we'll fight this
I won't let you slip away

How can we let go and give it up like this
There's gotta be another way
We've gotta be strong and together we'll fight this
I won't let you slip away
