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.
Quicker than I could bat an eye,
Seems you were telling me good-bye.
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.

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.
And now our meeting, you a-void,
And so my world, you have des-troyed.
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.

You only filled me with de-spair,
By showing love that wasn't there.
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.
