Ricki Lee - Mirage lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

You’re close enough to make me thirst

Close enough to need

And I've tried everythin' to close the distance

But you’re neva close enough to reach

And maybe this is like what sailors speak of

When your song sends em crashin' to your shore

See, I went off the map so long ago

But I don’t know if I can even turn back anymore

(Pre-Chorus)

And you might be the perfect trick

And I might be the perfect fool

But I think you are worth all of it

(Chorus)

It could all be smoke and mirrors

And I could be no nearer

But I’m just goin' to keep tryin'

Climbin', pushin' thru

Don’t know how, but I’m gonna get to you

You’re my mirage!

(Verse 2)

There’s just enough hope to keep dreaming

Enough proof to stay in makebelieve

And I don’t care how many out there

Can or don’t or won’t see it

I have never been safe in certainty

(Pre-Chorus)

And you might be the perfect trick

And I might be the perfect fool

But I think you are worth all of it

(Chorus)

It could all be smoke and mirrors

And I could be no nearer

But I’m just goin' to keep tryin'

Climbin', pushin' thru

Don’t know how, but I’m gonna get to you

You’re my mirage!

(Bridge)

You’re the symphony when I’m yet to make a sound

You’re the castle I built in the sky when I’m yet to leave the ground

You’re everythin' I cling to when nothin' can be found

My mirage...

(Chorus)

It could all be smoke and mirrors

And I could be no nearer

But I’m just goin' to keep tryin'

Climbin', pushin' thru

Don’t know how, but I’m gonna get to you

You’re my mirage!

(Verse 1)

You’re close enough to make me thirst

Close enough to need

And I tried everythin' to close the distance

But you’re neva close enough to reach
