Ooh! It's such a dark stretch

Cruel though it seems

A parallel between life and fate

A parallel between you and me

And all your worried wisdom baby

Gets you through the night

And though it all surrounds you there

You harvest the light

A blurred vision lurks you see

Deep within the why

A fall before the worthless one

Come and see this holy child

I bought a fool's bargain

Would you believe I bought a fool's game

Oh, can't you see how this whole thing started

Would you believe ever in a fool's dream

A true religion is hard to find

And some will steal your soul

Well, I'm the one who walks the line

I'm the one who knows

And all your worried wisdom baby

Can get you through the night

And though it all surrounds you there

You harvest the light

I bought a fool's bargain

Would you believe I bought a fool's game

Oh, can't you see how this whole thing started

Would you believe ever in a fool's dream

Ooh! It's such a dark stretch

Cruel though it seems

A parallel between life and fate

A parallel between you and me

I bought a fool's bargain

Would you believe I bought a fool's game

Oh, can't you see how this whole thing started

Would you believe ever in a fool's dream
