I saw you in a dream, it hit me like a bright light
Flashing on a screen, visions of my whole life
I used to chase the moment of desire
Back to when my young heart burned like a fire

It was just a, nothing but a grand illusion
Heart was quicker than the eye
Nothing but a grand illusion,
Legend in my own mind

I held you in my arms till the other side of midnight
Kept you in my mind, you got me through some long nights
Standing on the threshold of desire,
Caught between the madness and the fire

Chorus

It was all a grand illusion
Hand was quicker than the eye
Nothing but a grand illusion,
Legends in our own minds

I used to chase the moments of desire
Back to when my young heart burned like a fire

It was just a, nothing but a, it was all a grand illusion
Nothing but a grand illusion
It was all a grand illusion,
Legend in my own mind

It was just a grand illusion
Nothing but a grand illusion
It was just a grand illusion,
Legend in our own mind
