Fifi Rong: Forbidden Desire

Fifi Rong’s latest work is a further expression of her genre-bending hybrid-electronica sound; in her own words a “snap shot” of her latest development. The EP represents the continued refinement of Fifi’s distinctive style and showcases a transitional period towards her forthcoming album. The singer produces her music in isolation from start to finish, away from the influences of the outside world – the intention always being to communicate a certain emotional intimacy to her audience and to transport the listener into her very own universe. As Fifi has stated “It’s a very individual and intimate language that I speak, with unfiltered and naked feelings of my own, for those who want to join me and listen to something real.”

Fifi Rong: Forbidden Desire Lyrics
So I’ve dreamed of you for a while
Wonder what it would be like
Leave everything behind
On one of those rainy nights

So you’re playing on my mind
I don’t even wana fight
Have you growing inside
I’ll trouble you all night

Forbidden desire. Running deep and wide
Forbidden desire. Way over the line x2

So I’ve dreamed of you for a while
For one night you’d be mine
Leave everything behind
On one of those rainy nights

While it’s pouring down outside
Here I come to your surprise
And I say it to your eyes
That I wanted you all this time

Forbidden desire. Running deep and wide.
Forbidden desire. Way over the line x2.

Out stars just won’t align.
Our signs just don’t combine x4.

Forbidden desire. Running deep and wide.
Forbidden desire. Way over the line x2.

So I’ve dreamed of you for a while
Wonder what it would be like.
Leave everything behind.
On one of those rainy nights.
