Everyday illusion burns me alive, I’m only “smoke and ashes babe” invisible to your touch. No need to worry what I say, no need to turn away from my love as it’s only “smoke and ashes babe”; only dust blown by the wind. ~~~ Once there was substance, a flesh and blood man who stood naked emotionally open to the shadows of you, willing to walk in step with your spirit roaming, my flute playing to your heart beats. When you left you took the music with you leaving only illusion burning me alive; leaving only “smoke and ashes babe”.
