Sweetness was only heartaches camouflage
Since you were telling me goodbye
Oh, just a minute ago your love was here
By showing love that wasn't there
And now our meetings, you avoid
Just like the desert shows a thirsty man
To you I gave true love from deep within
Green oasis where there's only sand
You led me on with untrue kisses
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
Oh, just like the desert shows a thirsty man
You promised that happiness we forever share
You brought me up just to throw me down
You lured me into something I should have dodged
You lured me into, into something I should have dodged
The way you wrecked my life was like sabotage
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
Just like the desert shows a thirsty man
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
You had me captured in your false embrace
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
Just like the desert shows a thirsty man
We used to meet in romantic places
All of a sudden it seemed to disappear
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
You made me hungry for your love, but it was no deeper than your skin
Green oasis where there's only sand
Oh, just a minute ago your love was here
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
From the kisses you only pretended to feel
You lured me into something I should have dodged
And so my world, you have destroyed
But all I have are memories of love that was never there
Oh, oh, oh you only fill me with despair
Now all that's left are lipstick traces
Green oasis where there's only sand
Quicker than I can bat an eye
All of a sudden it seem to disappear
You left me and my dreams shattered all on the ground
The love I saw in you was just a mirage
You gave me the illusion that your love was real
