C#m2
This is no more than a story âbout a man I used to know
No more than a story that youâve heard ten times before
He saw what he wanted and attraction made him tell
She could never say no âcos false guilt will lead to Hell
No matter what you say it donât mean nothing cos its healed
Loveâs only skin-deep you gotta touch to know itâs real
Time is not my enemy Iâm still the same next week
Love is just my energy donât even have to speak
(notice the G# at the end of the 2nd part of the verse!)
Lust donât last forever
You know that this ainât right
Burning in the dark
Itâs not your hearts you set alight
If I could stop this somehow
Iâd be in there with my vice
But I guess Iâm just a lonely man
Better go think twice
She is so beautiful x4
(same chords as verse 1)
( etc, with on the end)
What started as a private life is no more than a show
Libidos in a Speedo as the good times start to go
Take me back through history so I can re-arrange
The details of your meeting itâs the only way Iâll change
Wrestling with my angel all throughout the night
He couldnât defeat my will and so he told me I was right
Show me my subconscience as you know I gotta find
The balance of my spirits and the essence of my mind
Luck donât last forever
You know that this ainât right
You do not deserve her
So why dâyou hold her tight?
If I could stop this somehow
Iâd pray for good advice
But I guess Iâm just a lonely man
Better go think twice
She is so beautiful x4
Badd11
You thought she was an angel
Badd11
God chose her from above
Badd11
And planted her right next to you
Badd11
Itâs a mirage of love
Badd11
But when she breaks a mirror
Badd11
You can break up as good friends
Badd11
Just donât tell your wife and kids
Badd11
The cycle starts again
Just a mirage of love (x4)
Itâs a mirage of love (x4)
