You can travel down your roads of fantasy and wonder   And let each and every beauty pillage, rape and plunder   The pure and golden treasure buried underneath your breast   Is covered in the muck that used indulgences detest   She longs to see it shine   She longs for you come down   From where you sit so high on your head a crystal crown   She’s a mirage   She’s and idol   She’s not real   Remove her from your mind and you will see   She’s a mirage   She’s a liar   She won’t heal you   She will try to come between you and me   You can spend your strength on women   On those who ruin kingdoms   The unfaithful will be torn from the land   For the trouble that they bring them   Her house leads down to death   Her charm’s an evil force   And the ties that bind the flesh   Will sever in divorce   She’s a mirage   She’s and idol   She’s not real   Remove her from your mind and you will see   She’s a mirage   She’s a liar   She won’t heal you   She will try to come between you and me   Take her down from your pedestal   She’s no use anymore   You will recognize the face of death   It fooled you once before   She will find herself disgusted as she’s lying on the floor   Look how vanity has led you where the road turns into dark despair   I hope I never see you there   Forgive me darlin’ being unaware   You’re no mirage   You are nothing of the kind   You are noble you are wise and you are pure   A good woman is the hardest thing to find   If there’s anything I know   Of this I’m sure
