Illusion - Marlene Dietrich

Want to buy some illusions

Slightly used second hand

They were lovely illusions

Reaching high built on sand

They had a touch of paradise

A spell you can't explain:

For in this crazy paradise

You are in love with pain

Want to buy some illusions

Slightly used almost new

Such romantic illusions

And they're all about you

I sell them all for a penny

They make pretty souvenirs

Take my lovely illusions

Some for laughs

Some for tears

They had a touch of paradise

A spell you can't explain:

For in this crazy paradise

You are in love with pain

Want to buy some illusions

Slightly used just like new

Such romantic illusions

And they're all about you

I sell them all for a penny

They make pretty souvenirs

Take my lovely illusions

Some for laughs

Some for tears
