Songs of a Synsuous Nature #25 - Dropping the Illusion
Melody: Losing My Religion - REM - YouTube Video
Oh love's what I wanted.
I wanted it and you gave it to me.
And I'll do almost anything,
To stay by your side.
You who make me strong,
When I wish to hide.
That's me in the corner.
That's me on the spot,
Feeling inadequate inside.
Trying to keep up the facade.
And I don't know how you did it.
You helped me to be strong,
You helped me write this song.
I thought that I heard you laughing,
When I see you my heart sings.
I think you know you're the reason why.
Every moment, of every waking hour,
You're always on my mind.
Do you feel like I do?
Am I just a foolish girl, whose mind's awhirl?
I know that must be wrong,
You helped me write this song.
Consider this,
Consider this, song, a gift to you from me.
Consider this, love,
Lifting me up from my knees.
Watch as all of this love from you
Makes me the person I wish to be.
Now I'm free.
I thought that I heard you laughing,
When I see you my heart sings.
I think you know you're the reason why.
This can't just be a dream
It's better than a dream
That's me in the corner,
That's me on the spot,
I'm dropping the illusion.
And it's all thanks to you.
Now I know that I can do it.
I've nothing left to hide,
I'm feeling strong inside.
Now I'm the one that's laughing,
As both of our heart sing.
Now it's tears of joy I cry.
This is not a dream.
You are the reason that I try.
This is not a dream, not a dream.
Not a dream, dream
