• Illusion / Masquerade

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

A masquerade of dancing shadows
Appear before me through my mystic window
And soon to be seen I saw presented
Became a vision that I saw resented

I stood and watched its image changing
The unseen hand was rearranging
And all the time I wondered
How did it wind

Slowly, surely it unfolded
Its simple lines just as a pole wind told it
A temporary revolution
My problems rose and fell with a lapse of illusion

My mind was telling me, don't fight it
It's just a hazard in the night
Don't do those who've lost their way
It's a masquerade

Slowly, surely it unfolded
Its simple lines just as a pole wind told it
A temporary revolution
My problems rose and fell with a lapse of illusion

My mind was telling me, don't fight it
It's just a hazard in the night
Don't do those who've lost their way
It's a masquerade
