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

Matt Monro (December 1, 1930 (or 1932, say some sources) - February 7, 1985) was a ballad singer of the 1960s and one of great international postwar entertainers. Throughout his 30-year career he filled cabarets, nightclubs, music halls and stadiums across the globe, from Australia, Japan, the Philippines, and Hong Kong to Africa, the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas. He sold more than 25 million records during his lifetime (most of those sales however didn't come until after his death), imbuing each one with his elegant blend of majesty, sincerity, and superior technique.
