Illusion lyrics

In a forest known as heartbreak

In a clearing in the wood

'Cross a pathway called confusion

Toward the garden of delight.

You'll reach the river of desire

And meekly try to cross it.

While the valley of love keeps avoiding you,

Because it's only an illusion.

Upon the hill of high ideals

You begin to wonder if it's real,

You are reaching sleep's oasis,

You begin to wonder how you feel.

But it happens so quickly it doesn't fit

Into your scenes...

Tossin' and turnin' the star of so many scenes,

It's only an illusion.

(Hensley)
