The Mirage from Storm Born by Mabilene

The Mirage
(songwriters: Jenny Weaver & Johnny Hanson)

Oh I, I really wanna say I do
Get wrapped up inside of you
Kind of love that never parts
And you would be so nice to come home to
Wine and roses in the bedroom
Light the fire in my heart

Oh, it’s never like a dream
No, it’s never as it seems
Colors fade away
Passion starts to fray
How can I belong to you
I’m walking out your door

Oh you, you have a way with words
Talk so sweet that it hurts
Oh, I never see it coming
And I, I’m shadowboxing with your lies
Wish I could say that I’m surprise
Another rounder in the ring

Chorus

I’ve seen many come and go
Promises made promises broken
Time after time
The truth was left unspoken
