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 misplaced      I don't make the rules dear   You don't hear the symphony I hear   We don't get a dollar bill for every shining tear      Fictitious and so real   Love's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah   So precious, yet surreal   Life's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah      Witnessing 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 guide      We don't make the rules dear   We don't hear the symphony they hear   We don't get a dollar bill for every shining tear      Fictitious and so real   Love's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah   So precious, yet surreal   Life's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah      So 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 bravery       Fictitious and so real   Love's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah   So precious, yet surreal   Life's a onetime deal   With a delicious dark appeal   And a religious kind of zeal, yeah
