In my mind I see a mirage on the wall,. But unfortunately it's not there at all.. So I guess I'll draw my mirage on the wall,. Then it can be here to see and enjoyed by all..
I was waiting for somebody. This afternoon. Hope that she remembered. Our rendezvouz. And when she didn't show. Just like yesterday. I do the last, I'll find another way.
Mister Majestic fires a gun. Mister Majestic. He got a lie on his tongue. You can't help but listen. He got a way with words. Don't ask useless questions.
I was missing my. Little Miss Misty Eyes. She made my life complete. I'd been waiting on. True love's sweet surprise. And it tasted so sweet. Oh it tasted so sweet.
I held the rope so tightly. As she climbed. Down from her room. We said we'd make our getaway. Underneath the moon. I always will remember. The night that we left home.
Mister majestic fires a gun. Mister majestic. He got a lie on his tongue. You can't help but listen. He got a way with words. Don't ask useless questions.
(enlightened woman). . She dances on the seven seas. Dances on the ocean. Sunlight on her golden hair. Shapes of pure emotion. Her voice is heard like.
I walked you to your doorstep. Believin' we could make a little love. And I let you have my heart. I was as certain as the stars above. . Looked here and there.
A masquerade of dancing shadows. Appear before me. Through my mystic window. And soon to be seen. I saw presented. Became a vision that. I saw resented.
I just lay down wonderin'. What to lay down. Lately I can do it. Every day undisturbed. I think I know what. But I can't find out how. The morning didn't show me.
She got me to walk on water. I did what she said. She got me to steal the moonlight. Put it over her head. And after I moved the mountain. Which stood in the way.
When you look inside my magic lantern. All the world is yet unseen. Try to gaze into the yellow glowing. And get a reflection of me. . In a land of make believe and magic.
Do you remember what we promised when we met, my love?. There would never be a reason for regret, my love. The news has come to town, the news flies up and down.
I was born in Memphis on the wrong side of town. Way back up in the projects. We didn't have much bet there was music all around. That was something we could respect.
[Chorus]. My baby plays me just like a fiddle. She knows I love her a lot not a little. I'm just a stick that she likes to whittle. I got a heart and she's in the middle of it.
People get all upset and they shiver. And they sweat for money. It don't seem to make no difference. Which a way the wind might blow. . They scrimp and they save and.
Mississippi,. You've been on my mind,. Like a mist in the morning,. From some dream I've left behind.. . Mississippi,. I've been kinda down,. 'Cause it's been such a long time.
