Intro

Verse 1

There you were, beautiful;

The promise of love was written on your face.

You led me on, with untrue kisses;

You held me captive in your false em-brace.

Bridge 1

Quicker than I could bat an eye,

Seems you were telling me good-bye.

Chorus 1

Just a minute ago your love was here,

All of a sudden, it seemed to disap-pear.

Sweetness was only heartache's camou-flage;

The love I saw in you was just a mi-rage.

Break

Verse 2

We used to meet in romantic places;

You gave the i-llusion that your love was real.

Now all that's left are lipstick traces;

From the kisses you only pre-tended to feel.

Bridge 2

And now our meeting, you a-void,

And so my world, you have des-troyed.

Chorus 2

Just a minute ago your love was here,

All of a sudden, it seemed to disap-pear.

The way you wrecked my life was like sabo-tage,

The love I saw in you was just a mi-rage.

Break

Interlude

Bridge 3

You only filled me with de-spair,

By showing love that wasn't there.

Chorus 3

Just like the desert shows a thirsty man,

A green o-asis where there's only sand.

You lured me into something I should have dodged,

The love I saw in you was just a mi-rage.

Interlude

Chorus 4

Just like the desert shows a thirsty man,

A green o-asis where there's only sand.

You lured me into something I should have dodged,

The love I saw in you was just a mi-rage.
