[Verse 1]
Tryin’ to get control, pressure’s takin’ its [Em/B]toll
Stuck in the middle zone, I just want you alone
My guessing game is strong, way too real to be wrong
Em D C N.C.
Caught up in your show, yeah, at least now I know
[Cborus 1]
It wasn’t love, it wasn’t love, [Em/B]it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn’t love, [Em/B]it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
You were a perfect illusion
[Verse 2]
I don’t need eyes to see, I felt you touchin’ [Em/B]me
High like amphetamine, maybe you’re just a dream
That’s what it means to crush, now that I’m wakin’ up
I still feel the blow but at least now I know
[Cborus 2]
It wasn’t love, it wasn’t love, [Em/B]it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn’t love, [Em/B]it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
Where are you ’cause I can’t see
But if I feel you watchin’ me
[A/C#]Dilated, falling free
In a modern ecstasy
Where were you ’cause I can’t see
Why did I feel you watchin’ me
[A/C#]Why did I feel you watchin’ me
Why did I feel you watchin’ me
Where are you ’cause I can’t see
But if I feel you watchin’ me
[A/C#]Dilated, falling free
In a modern ecstasy
[Em/B]In a modern ecstasy
[Em/B]In a modern ecstasy
(I’m over the show, but at least now I know)
[Cborus 3]
It wasn’t love, it wasn’t love, it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn’t love, it was a
Perfect illusion (perfect illusion)
