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
