Lyrics
The Illusionist
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Long before the changing tides of the sea
Over truths and under lies you'd follow me
You make making motions seems so easy
That all would fall trying to follow your lead
Oh, I was once significant
The greatest man had nothing on all I am
Oh, where did it all go?
A clever girl with clever tricks who fooled the great illusionist
I should have known
If I could freeze the earth under your feet
Then I could keep you here
Maybe I could find the words that escape my mind
If I could freeze the earth
I swear I swear I saw
I swear I saw your there
I swear, I swear I knew
I swear I swore you knew
I swear, I swear I know
If I could keep you here
If I could freeze the earth under your feet
Then I could keep you here
Maybe I could find the words
If I could freeze the earth
