The Love I Saw You In 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

You held me captured in your false embrace

Quicker than I can bat an eye

Since you were telling me goodbye

Oh, just a minute ago your love was here

All of a sudden it seem to disappear

Sweetness was only heartaches camouflage

The love I saw in you was just a mirage

(You promised that happiness we'd forever share)

(But all I have are memories of love that was never there)

We use to meet in romantic places

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, just a minute ago your love was here

All of a sudden it seem to disappear

The way you wrecked my life was like sabotage

The love I saw in you was just a mirage

(You brought me up just to throw me down)

(You left me and my dreams shattered all on the ground)

Oh, oh, oh you only feel me with despair

By showing love that wasn't there

Oh, just like the desert shows a thirsty man

Green oasis where there's only sand

You lured me into something I should have dodged

The love I saw in you was just a mirage

(To you I gave true love from deep within)

(You made me hungry for your love, but it was no deeper than your skin)
