Forbidden Fruit
Ne-Yo · Other Songs - Ne-Yo
I fantisize because there's nothing more,
From a distance, I do adore,
You are her property and she is yours,
Nothing I could do...
... but close my eyes and watch us dance,
Together,
Underneath the cherry moon,
Your another womans man,
In my mind
It's only you and me
It drives me crazy
I just wanna stand up and scream
Tonight I will steal you away
(Oooooh ooooh)
All I want is just one taste (Oooooh)
All that I want to do
Forbidden fruit
I got to get up quick,
Before she catch me starin at his lips,
They look like wine, I want to take a sip
Nothing I can do...
... but close my eyes and watch us dance,
Together,
Underneath the cherry moon,
Your another womans man,
In my mind
It's only you and me
It drives me crazy
I just wanna stand up and scream
Tonight I will steal you away
(Oooooh ooooh)
All I want is just one taste (Oooooh)
All that I wanna do
It's something I should'nt
Ooh, the room is startin to spin
Gimme your hand, forget your girl
Let's go somewhere and commit a sin
Tonight I will steal you away
(Oooooh ooooh)
All I want is just one taste
(Oooooh ooooh)

The song exemplifies his signature style, characterized by smooth vocal delivery and melodic hooks designed for radio play. Released during a period where he was establishing himself as a major force in contemporary music, the recording reflects the era's emphasis on catchy, emotionally resonant anthems. While often associated with romantic themes, the track focuses on the tension and allure of desire rather than explicit narrative details. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to function as both a personal expression and a shared cultural moment, showcasing Ne-Yo's talent for crafting accessible yet sophisticated musical works that have influenced subsequent releases in the genre.
