Illusion
"One Direction Lyrics

Tell me you believe in love
Convince me that you have faith in the power of love

It's not an illusion
Love is not a false or deceptive concept

I been thinking about the nights
I have been reflecting on past experiences

And the dangerous tricks
And the manipulative tactics

People play on the eyes of the innocent
That people use to deceive those who are naive and trusting

I can turn a lot of hearts into
I have the ability to make many people fall

Breaks with smoke and
In love, only to shatter their hearts using deception

Mirrors disappearing
Through illusions that vanish

Right in front of them
Right before their very eyes

But believe me
However, trust me

I'm not trying to deceive you
I am not attempting to mislead or trick you

I promise falling for me
I assure you that becoming enamored with me

Won't be a mistake
Will not be an error or regret

No baby this is not an illusion
No, my dear, this is not a false perception

I've really got my heart out on my sleeve
I am genuinely expressing my emotions and vulnerability

Oh baby this is not an illusion
Oh, my love, this is not a deceptive fantasy

There's magic between you and me
There is a special and enchanting connection between us

You really got me lifted off my feet
You truly make me feel elated and enthralled

So tell me you believe in love
So assure me that you have faith in the power of love

'Cause its not an illusion to me
Because love is not a deceptive perception in my eyes

You don't ever have to worry about me
You never need to be concerned about me

About how the cards fall
About the unpredictable outcomes

I'm all that you need tonight
I am everything you require for this evening

I would never turn your heart into
I would never break your heart into

Broken parts
Pieces of pain and sorrow

You don't have to think twice
You do not need to hesitate or have doubts

Looking in my eyes
As you gaze into my eyes

Can't you see it?
Can't you perceive it?

I'm not trying to mislead you
I am not attempting to deceive or lead you astray

I promise falling for me
I assure you that developing feelings for me

Won't be a mistake
Will not be an error or regret

You can tie me up in chains
You can restrain me with restrictions

You can throw away the key
You can discard the means of escape

But there's no trapped doors
But there are no hidden exits

I'm not gonna leave
I will not abandon you

You're the truth I can't explain
You are the inexplicable reality that I cannot describe

You're the only one I see
You are the sole person I am focused on

Its not an illusion to me
To me, it is not a deceptive fantasy

So tell me you believe in love
So assure me that you have faith in the power of love

'Cause its not an illusion to me
Because love is not a deceptive perception in my eyes

So tell me you believe in love
So assure me that you have faith in the power of love

'Cause its not an illusion
Because it is not a false or deceptive concept
