Only a Mirage
About the Song
Only a Mirage is about longing for a love that feels real, even when it may only live in memory.
Like a traveller in the desert chasing water on the horizon, the heart keeps moving toward something it hopes is still there.
But sometimes what we are reaching for is not the person anymore,
only a mirage created by memory, desire, and hope.
Verse 1
Wandering on an endless road of loneliness
Your kisses engraved into my soul
Your voice keeps haunting me
When you said, “I love you.”
Pre-Chorus
All I want is you
And I’m building this fantasy.
Walking slowly, I’m getting closer.
To my mirage.
Chorus
I can see you in the distance.
And I’m walking faster,
I want to hold you
To feel your warmth
So madly in love…
It’s only a mirage.
Verse 2
Everything you ever said
Lives in my soul
Reminding me of your sweet love
I wish you were here.
Outro
But I’m alone with my mirage
And there’s only you inside
Bridge
It’s only a mirage…
