Lyrics Just an Illusion - Barry Biggs

Just an Illusion

I’ve been told 'bout living like a star
Hotel Ritz, champagne and caviar
But no-one ever showed me the reverse
And that really hurts, babe, it really hurts
They try to sell your body and your soul
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, I want you)
It’s the price you pay for rock 'n roll
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, I want you)
And no-one understands it how you feel
For it’s so unreal, oh, it’s so unreal
Baby, don’t you cry for me
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
I thought I knew what life should be
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
When critics crucify your latest show
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, I want you)
Another drink and then you lose control
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, I want you)
But then on stage I feel a fire burn
There is no return, I’m always on the run
I give it to you, babe, with all my heart
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, I want you)
For it’s not too late, baby, it’s not too late
Baby, don’t you cry for me
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
I thought I knew what life should be
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
Baby, don’t you cry for me
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
I thought I knew what life should be
It’s an illusion, just an illusion
