Mirage Lyrics


Lonesome and hungry I travel this land
Searching for some place called home
Faceless and nameless, known only by fate
When destiny finds me, no more shall I roam
Tired and thirsty as I travel on
Dreaming of water and wine
Beside a green meadow I stop for a rest
Where a gentle brook winds through the pines
Standing eyes blinded by God's golden waters
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage
Alone and exhausted I fall to my knees
I can't find the strength to go on
Visions will show me the path as I sleep
And I'll find my way with the dawn
Standing eyes blinded by God's golden waters
My savior was but a facade

Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage
Awakened by voices that whisper my name
I'm all alone in the night
How can a place so empty and cold
Be filled with such glorious light
Standing eyes blinded by God's golden waters
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage
Standing eyes blinded by God's golden waters
My savior was but a facade
Hands sifting sand from a pool full of promise
My oasis was just a mirage
Lonesome and hungry I travel this land
Searching for some place called home
Faceless and nameless, known only by fate
When destiny finds me, no more shall I roam

Honeytree was born into a family of professional classical musicians. Honeytree (a translation from German of her family name) was drawn toward the hippie kids at school. She became a drug addict and one summer in 1970 she met some Jesus People at her sister's art school, and became one herself. After graduating, she worked at a youth ministry in Ft. Wayne, Indiana called Adams Apple, a part of the Jesus movement, and it was during these years that she began to write songs about her Christianity, recording her self-titled first album in 1973.
