Then 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
We used 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
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
