The Love I Saw in You Was Just a Mirage lyrics

There you were, beautiful

The promise of love was written on your face

You led me on with untrue kisses

Oh you held me captive in your false embrace

Quicker than I could bat an eye

Seems you were telling me goodbye

Oh-oh just a minute ago your love was here

All of a sudden it seemed to disappear

Sweetness was only heartache's camouflage

The love I saw in you was just a mirage

We used to meet in romantic places

Oh you gave the illusion that your love was real

Now all that's left are lipstick traces

From the kisses you only pretended to feel

And now our meetings you avoid

And so my world you have destroyed

Oh-oh just a minute ago your love was here

Oh baby all of a sudden it seemed to disappear

Yeah the way you wrecked my life was like sabotage

The love I saw in you was just a mirage

Oh yeah you only filled me with despair

By showing love that wasn't there

Oh just like the desert shows a thirsty man

A green oasis where there's only sand

You lured me into something I should have dodged

Oh the love I saw in you was just a mirage

Whooh yeah

Just like the desert shows a thirsty man

A green oasis where there's only sand

Ooh ooh ooh you lured me into something I should have dodged
