MIRAGE

Words and music by Ez Jon Erikson © copyright 1999

 

A mental walk in a park

Of psychic tranquility

We lie and talk

On the grass by the willow tree

Alone just us two

Oh, the gentle breeze

Lying next to you

My heart and mind at ease

 

Your face disappears as I turn to you

My mind creates vivid images of you

Inside there's a hungering pain

Without you it's not the same

Return to me for my love still remains

 

Optical illusion

Mirage of your beauty is unkindly kind

A noxious fusion

Of feelings and thoughts to mind

Your image an oasis

To quench my thirst for you

Reality erases

The dream that won't come true
