Текст песни Sweet Illusions - Live at Carnegie Hall, May 14. 2022 - Ryan Adams

Let me go, I'm only letting you down
I've got nothing to say to you now
Lose the feelings that are weighing me down
When I'm safe

It's turning morning, all the birds sing
But I'm not complicating anything
I have another then I'll go to bed, but I'll dream of you

'Cause it's almost over and it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion coming down
And I ain't got nothing but love for you now

You and I used to shine like a jewel
But times been nothing to us but cruel
So play it out and never played the fool
'Cause you'll lose every time

We were nothing, we were only the past
Hard times like that don't last
I've been forgiven, I've been surpassed by my heart, have you?

'Cause it's almost over, yeah, it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion coming now
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusion coming now

And I ain't got nothing but love for you, love for you, that I can't use
Lonely nights multiplied by the blues that I can't resolve

You never knew me but you did your best
I'm just lonely inside, I guess
You gave me everything, you really tried, thanks

If we were nothing and we're only the past
Well, I'm just living in a dream, I guess
A long black dream that takes me down the river to you

Well, it's almost over and it's almost gone
And I can feel the sweet illusion coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusions coming now
I can feel the sweet illusions coming
Sweet confusion, honey, sweet illusions coming now

And I ain't got nothing but love for you now
