Tenby (Welsh: Dinbych-y-pysgod, meaning fortlet of the fish) is a walled seaside town in Pembrokeshire, south Wales, on the western side of Carmarthen Bay, and the name for the local government community of Tenby.
Notable features of Tenby include 2.5 miles (4.0 km) of sandy beaches; the 13th century medieval town walls, including the Five Arches barbican gatehouse; the 15th century St. Mary's Church; the Tudor Merchant's House (National Trust); Tenby Museum and Art Gallery; and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, part of Wales' only coastal National Park. Boats sail from Tenby's harbour to the offshore monastic Caldey Island, while St Catherine's Island is a tidal island. The town is served by Tenby railway station.
With its strategic position on the far west coast of the British Isles, and a natural sheltered harbour from both the Atlantic Ocean and the Irish Sea, Tenby was a natural settlement point.
The earliest reference to a settlement at Tenby is in "Etmic Dinbych", a poem probably of the 9th century, preserved in the 14th century Book of Taliesin. At this point the settlement was probably a hill fort, the mercantile nature of the settlement possibly developing under Hiberno-Norse influence.
I’m stuck… in a traffic jam,
Hands to my head as the lights turn red
I’m stuck… feels like quicksand
And times running out, gotta figure this out
Yeah it’s on… World War 3
As my head, my heart disagree.
Head says no, heart says yes, I’m my own worst enemy
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I’m damned if I do, shamed if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
One year, it’s like a lifetime with you all alone,
we've been through it all.
I can’t, no I can’t be a murderer
Just given it all, what more could they want than love!
Hey, in a second; we were lost now found once more
What feels right, seems so wrong
Yeah the truth will never lie…
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I am dammed if I do, shamed if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
Dammed if I do, shamed if I don’t
Torned if I do, blamed if I don’t
(Chorus)
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say that
I love you…
And I am dammed if I do, shame if I don’t…
Yeah I’m forbidden, yes forbidden, I’m forbidden to say
that I love you…
I’m stuck… in a traffic jam...
