Just An Illusion

I've been told 'bout living like a star
Hotel Ritz, champaign and caviar
But no one ever showed me the reverse
And that really hurts
Babe, it really hurts

They try to sell your body and your soul
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, want you)
It's the price you pay for rock 'n roll
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, want you)
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
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, want you)
Another drink and then you lose control
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, want you)
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
(Babe, want you, my love, babe, want you)
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 illusion
Just an illusion
