Just an Illusion

I've been told 'bout living like a star Hotel Rich, champagne and caviar But no one ever showed me the reverse And that really hurts, babe, it really hurts I want you I need you They try to sell your body and you soul It's the price you pay for rock'n roll And no one understands it, how you feel For it's so unreal, oh, it's so unreal Baby, don't you cry for me It's an illusion, just an illusion I thought I knew what life should be It's an illusion, just an illusion When critics crucify your latest show Another drink and then you lose control But then on stage I feel a fire burn There is no return; I'm always on the run I give it to you, babe, with all my heart For it's not too late, baby, it's not too late Baby don't you cry for me It's an illusion, just an illusion I thought I knew what life should be It's an illusion, just an illusion Baby don't you cry for me It's an illusion, just an illusion I thought I knew what life should be It's an illsuion, just an illusion
