Lyrics

I saw you this friday night

I observed you on this Friday night

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love

Swaying in the velvet lights

Dancing or moving gracefully in the soft, luxurious lights

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love

We chase the thrill of crossing lines

Pursuing the excitement of pushing boundaries

you’re still a little teenage child

Despite growing older, retaining a youthful and rebellious spirit

And there’s poison in the shiny lies

Acknowledging deception or falsehood in attractive, alluring lies

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love


It’s all the things we do for love

Collective reference to various actions done for love


So deep the paper cut

Describing emotional pain as intense as a deep paper cut

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love

Still burning in my blood

Emphasizing the lingering impact of love on one's blood or emotions

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love

But baby I got only one

Expressing commitment to only one love

and one has to be enough

Emphasizing contentment with having just one love

Won’t let this fuck me up cause I’m too tough

Determining not to be negatively affected by love due to inner strength

the things we do for love

Actions we undertake in the name of love


It’s all the things we do for love

Collective reference to various actions done for love
