You sing songs about men
But mine are about the girls back then
We're far away but so close
You know I'll always miss you the most

But love has rules, just like every other art
I have an orthodox brain but a heretic heart
And I need to know
And I need to know if you feel the same

You sing the melodies that I dream
Your voice so pure, purer than an angel's scream
Each and every day we're closer to Peter's gate
I think we're just in time to be too late

But love has rules, just like every other art
I have an orthodox brain but a heretic heart
And I need to know
And I need to know if you feel the same

You always want what you can't get
I guess we'll never find a perfect fit

But love has rules, just like every other art
I have an orthodox brain but a heretic heart
And if you don't stay, then who'll play the part
And I need to know
And I need to know if we feel the same
