There's a place that we dare not go
It's our secret
We don't want to show
To each other what we are inside
So in fear our true selves we hide

In the market
Where we feed our souls
You want silver
Darling, I want gold

And you wonder
Are you in control?
You suspect me
But you come on home

Suspicious, superstitious
You're suspicious
Darling, superstitious
I never ever thought I'd fall in love again

But you're suspicious
Superstitious
Well, I'm suspicious
Baby, superstitious

I'm in question about what I see
I recognize it
Oh and I believe
You're a spoiler who would steal my heart
Oh, but you're caught up in the lover's part

Suspicious
Superstitious
You're suspicious
Superstitious
Well, I never ever thought I'd fall in love again

I'm suspicious
Superstitious
You're suspicious
Baby, superstitious

(Suspicious
Superstitious)
Ooh...
Suspicious about you and me
Superstitious about what I see

(Suspicious

Superstitious)

Suspicious about our love affair
Superstitious
But you know I care
(Suspicious
Superstitious)

Ooh
Uh-huh
(Suspicious
Superstitious)

Oh, yeah
Suspicious, oh-oh
Suspicious about you and me
Superstitious, uh-huh
(Suspicious
Superstitious)
Ooh

Suspicious
Won't you feed your soul
Superstitious
Let love control
