My illusion, my mistake

Again I dwelled on dreams
And nothing ever turns out as it seemed at first -
like in a curse.
My heart was hungry and so I took the bait.
My illusion, my mistake.

Again I sat and grieved.
Your words had made a dreamer out of me,
I thought so foolishly.
I didn‘t think my heart was gonna break.
My illusion, my mistake.

It hurts when you know 
you have to let it go.
But you want the impossible to happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

All these words,
how they bleed 
onto the paper infront of me.
But they don’t express what I would like to say.
Unable to sleep, at night I lie awake.
My illusionn, my mistake. 

It sucks when you know
you need to let it go.
But you hope the impossible will happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

To some
chasing a dream 
might feel contemptible,
It may appear absurd
The most exciting tunes I know are 
melodies that I‘ve never heard.
Let‘s think we‘re growing wings
as we‘re falling from the sky like birds.
Unperturbed.
Superb. 

It still hurts,
It still bleeds,
And It doesn‘t seem to heal.
All my fantasies have turned into aches. 
No, no, no, no, no
I thought that our souls were bound by fate.
My illusiom, my mistake.

went outside today
the sky was blue
the breeze cool
could see the beautiful earth below

the endless procession of airplanes no longer crowding the skies

No Illusion

It's funny how this fondness grew since I've been painting you
Captured your image beautifully too since I've been painting you
Know every wrinkle and every curve since I've been painting you
I sketched your smile and fell in love since I've been painting you

CHORUS
Well you can say what you want to
Like other folks do
I'm always treated that way
But when you pose for my painting
Like other folks do
I want to whisk you away

Your eyes so perfect, your body so proud - I like painting you
I want to proclaim my love out aloud when I'm painting you
When dressed Victorian, modern or nude - I like painting you
It's funny how this fondness grew since I've been painting you

CHORUS

Painting You
