I hear a sigh, longing for loving in this life
The how and the why that keeps us running through the night
Touching divine, for me it has only your face
I'm looking to find pieces of wisdom I've misplacedI don't make the rules, dear
You don't hear the symphony I hear
We don't get a dollar bill
For every shining tearFictitious and so real
Love's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeahSo precious, yet surreal
Life's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeahWitnessing fault in every pawn in the game
The only one called proudly answers to my name
No, I don't know why love is a thief in the night
The one that you try is your most devoted guideWe don't make the rules, dear
We don't hear the symphony they hear
We don't get a dollar bill
For every shining tearFictitious and so real
Love's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeahSo precious, yet surreal
Life's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeahSo thank you for choosing me, playing me, displaying me
And selling me to slavery, yeah
Thank you for using me, flaying me, erasing me
Awarding me for braveryFictitious and so real
Love's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeahSo precious, yet surreal
Life's a one time deal
With a delicious dark appeal
And a religious kind of zeal, yeah
