Lyrics Sweet Illusions - Ryan Adams

Sweet Illusions

Let me call you and let me down
I got nothing to say to you now
Lose the feelings that are weighing me down
When I’m sane
It’s turning morning all the birds sing
I’m not complicating anything
I’ll have another and then I’ll go to bed
And dream of you
Cause it’s almost over
Yeah it’s almost gone
I can feel the Sweet Illusion
Sweet Confusion
Sweet Illusion coming down
And I ain’t got nothing but love for you now
You and I used to shine like a jewel
But time’s been nothing to us but cruel
So play it out and never play the fool
Cause you’ll lose everytime
We were nothing, we were only the past
Hard times like that don’t last
I’ve been forgiven, I've been surpassed
By my heart
Have you?
Cause it’s almost over
Yeah it’s almost gone
I can feel the Sweet Illusion
Sweet Confusion
Sweet Illusion coming down
And I ain’t got nothing but love
Love for you that I can’t use
Lonely nights multiplied by the blues
I can’t resolve
You never knew me but you did you’re best
I’m just lonely inside I guess
You gave me everything you really tried
Thanks…
If we are nothing and we’re only the past
Well I’m just living in a dream I guess
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you
Where it’s almost over
And it’s almost gone
And I can feel the Sweet Illusion
Sweet Confusion
Sweet Illusion coming down
Sweet Illusion
Sweet Confusion
Sweet Illusion coming down
And I ain’t got nothing but love for you now
