Mirage
You used to love me, baby
You used to drive me crazy
But where are you now

Mirage
These silly games you are playin'
I don't know if your goin' or stayin'
But now I want out

Mirage
You used to show me how you felt
And many of nights I knew what love was about
And now girl, I know just where we stand
And I'll tell you right now, you're a

Mirage, that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free
Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man

Mirage, and that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free
Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man

Mirage
The time that we spent together
Doing what you wanted whenever, never knowing when
This love affair would end, oh girl

And now you're just a mirage
And now I changed for the better
Because now I know how clever, girl, that you can be
And now it's plain to see, oh girl

Mirage
You used to show me how you felt
Girl, you used to care
And many of nights I knew what love was about
Girl, you used to care
And now girl, I know just where we stand
And I'll tell you right now, you're a

Mirage, and that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free
Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man

Mirage, and that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free
Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man

Mirage
Girl, you used to care
Girl, you used to care
And I'll tell you right now, you're a

Mirage, and that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free
Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man

Mirage, and that's not the way that it should be
Mirage, now girl, try to set me free




Mirage, please girl, you've got to understand
Mirage, that I don't want to be your man
