From the recording Livin' It Up: Songs from the Write Across America Project
Lyrics
The world keeps spinning and you suspended all of my beliefs
In everything that I’d ever seen
And I’ll keep pretending
How there’s just a little more to believe in
Than anything that I’d ever seen in you
But I never knew
That you would say
Something that could sting so hard
And take my breath away
And I never knew
That we would be
Nothing more than just a discount memory
And now the world keeps spinning
(spinning, spinning, spinning)
And you suspended all of my beliefs
In everything that I’ve ever seen
I’ll keep pretending
There’s just a little more to believe in
But I’m in love with
I'm just in love with an illusion
Marbled signs
Enchanted lines
Oh those words
They made me start to lose my mind
And then all the times
You would say
Something that could sting so hard and take my breath away
And now the world keeps spinning
(spinning, spinning, spinning)
And you suspended all of my beliefs
In everything that I’d ever seen
And I’ll keep pretending
There’s just a little more to believe in,
But I’m in love with
I’m just in love with an illusion
And every time I turn around to try to believe ya
You’re choking on the lies that are meant to deceive me
But no, oh I want to know
If every time I turn around and think that I see
There’s a little part of me still wants to believe you
But no
I’m just in love with…
Oh how the world keeps spinning
(spinning, spinning, spinning)
and you’ve suspended all of my beliefs
In everything that I’d ever seen
And I’ll keep pretending
There’s just a little more to believe in,
But I’m in love with
I’m just in love with
Oh I'm just in love with
Oh I'm just in love with
An illusion
