It's just an illusion you're dreaming of It lurks in the corners of your mind Baby admit it, it's what you hoped to find But you better stop looking That ain't what love's about Forget those expectations Or you're gonna find out It's just smoke and mirrors Another illusion of love Smoke and mirrors A smoldering fire Looking back at us Shattered glass And shattered dreams Nothing's quite the way it seems Smoke and mirrors That ain't how I want it to be We've built something good and it stands a chance So don't start reflecting And say it won't last The truth as you see it just ain't the truth I know we can make it Our love is the proof But you know I'm real I can hurt and I can bleed And if you never see it You won't know what I need Smoke and mirrors Another illusion of love Smoke and mirrors A smoldering fire Looking back at us Shattered glass And shattered dreams Nothing's quite the way it seems Smoke and mirrors That ain't how I want it to be Let the smoke turn into fire A testament to our desire Let the mirror crack So we can look inside I'll hold you Love you all night long Baby, that's all that I want Smoke and mirrors Another illusion of love Smoke and mirrors A smoldering fire Looking back at us Shattered glass And shattered dreams Nothing's quite the way it seems Smoke and mirrors That ain't how I want it to be
