Lyrics Illusions - Udo Lindenberg

Love is a game
You better play according to the rules
And yet we always scheme to much
And dream to much, we fools

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 second hand?
They were lovely illusions
Reaching high, built on sand

Too bad they all fell apar
As dreams often do
They were lovely illusions
But they just wouldn't come true
