Verse 1 A dozen years ago, we lit up the sky, Built a heaven on earth, thought love couldn’t die. I held on to the dream, held on to you, But the truth slipped through cracks I never knew. Chorus A dozen years later, I finally see, It was never as real as it felt to me. Just a mirage, fading under the sun, Heaven on earth, undone. Verse 2 We danced in the garden, we laughed in the rain, I painted our love over rivers of pain. But the canvas was fragile, the colors untrue, The lies were the frame that held me to you. Chorus A dozen years later, I finally see, It was never as real as it felt to me. Just a mirage, fading under the sun, Heaven on earth, undone. Bridge Was it love or illusion, a spell I believed? You wore the mask, I wove the weave. Now I walk through the ashes, barefoot, alone, Searching for the garden we never owned. Final Chorus A dozen years later, I lay it to rest, The mirage dissolves with each broken breath. What I thought was forever was never begun, Heaven on earth, undone.
