Lyrics

A Grand Illusion
© 2022 Gia Levé, Bruce Lowe

V1
She lay alone
The scent of gardenia drifted
It took her back in time
Sweet memories in her mind

B
Languid days
Gentle Breeze
New romance
All consuming
Love in kind
At the time
It was an epic
ballad blooming

CH
Funny how years
Fade the blush of love away
It all seemed so perfect
Impossible to stay
Lost in the magic
Caught up in the spell
Love’s grand illusion
Where dreamers dwell

V2
She heard songs that played
Such feeling and passion
She felt soft to touch
Beneath her lovers hand
She would fall, Lose it all
let herself go in wild abandon
You love once, she proclaimed
Reciting a personal canon

CH
It’s funny how years
Fade the blush of love away
It all seemed so perfect
Impossible to stay
Lost in the magic
Caught up in the spell
Of love’s grand illusion
Where dreamers dwell

V3
She would yearn for more
Of his earnest declarations
She believed that her heart would be fine, not torn apart
All the same
Everything changed
Never thinking such a conclusion
It was fine for it’s time
But it was all a grand illusion


C
It’s funny how years
Fade the blush of love away
It all seemed so perfect
Impossible to stay
Lost in the magic
Caught up in the spell
Of love’s grand illusion
Where dreamers dwell


Outro
It was fun
In the end
It was all
A grand illusion
