Lyrics

Immaculate Deception

[Verse 1]

In the daylight comes darkness

On the verge of night, a fear is born

Sweeter than the dream, the reality of you

[Chorus]

Immaculate deception

Deception

[Verse 2]

From the spirit runs poison

And the wheel of fortune is ever still

Sweeter than the light, the darkness of your soul

[Chorus]

Immaculate deception

Deception

[Bridge]

Something has touched the spirit inside

Once there was love, now there's a void

Nights of deception, ghosts in my mind

Am I bewitched? Slave to desire

It's knowing that time keeps rolling on

Night after day, day after night

It's knowing that feeling of coming home

To where my spirit lies

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

It's knowing that feeling of coming home

To where my spirit lies
