Love is a
mirage
Shimmering in the light
Promising security
Promising delights
It whispers to me softly
Words of hope
Words of trust
Yet in the final moments
It delivers only dust.
Love is a mirage
Chorus
Love, Love is
A mirage
Playing with my lonely heart
Just leading me on,
Love, Love is
A mirage
Playing with my lonely heart
Just leading me,
Leading me on
And on and on
Verse
Love is a mirage
It fools young and old
All travel to the flames of love
But find its fires cold
So beware of voices
In the wilderness
And visions that may cry
Come to me my darling,
I'll take you to paradise
For love is a mirage
