that grand illusion - janis ian lyrics
[verse 1]
the gulls are crying
missy, can you hear them call?
it was so easy then
when all our friends were small
how we used to like the old*time movies
the silent picture show
where you make up your life
at the end of the night
as your reel to reels unfold
[chorus 1]
now i come here to score some satisfaction
maybe some more of that old reaction
i’m a junkie for that grand illusion
who’s losing and who’s just using
[verse 2]
i lost my virtue
leading some double life, i fear
it was so еasy then
when all our friends livеd near
now i’m left without an advertis*m*nt
to separate the marks and the shills
from these good time blues
and two*toned shoes
that used to give me chills
[chorus 2]
i come to score
or maybe more
i am a junkie for that grand illusion
who’s using who and losing?
[verse 3]
the summer’s fading
i can feel it go
it’s slipping through my fingers
like some broken radio
the sea gull’s flying
missy, can you hear them call
i remember you cried
when the summer died
though i wouldn’t cry at all
[outro]
la da da da, la da da da
la da da da da da da
