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 and cross it

While the valley of love

Keeps avoiding you

Because it's only an illusion

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

It's only an illusion
