Sweet Illusions Songtext

von Ryan Adams

Let me go, I'm only letting you down
I've got nothing to say to you now
I lose the feelings that are weighing me down when I'm safe
It's turning morning, all the birds sing
I'm not complicating anything
I'll have another then I'll go to bed, but I'll dream of you
'Cause it's almost over and it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion
Coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
You and I used to shine like a jewel
But times been nothing to us but cruel
So play it out and never played the fool
'Cause you'll lose every time
We were nothing, we were only the past
Hard times like that don't last
I've been forgiven, I have been surpassed by my heart
Have you
'Cause it's almost over, yeah it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion
Coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
Love for you I can't use
And lonely nights multiplied by the blues that I can't resolve
You never knew me but I did my best
I'm just lonely inside I guess
You gave me everything
You really tried, thanks
If we were nothing and we're only the past
Then I'm just living in a dream I guess
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you
Where it's almost over and we're almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion
Coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
