Gregory Porter - Illusion Lyrics

I've been searchin all the corners of my room
sweeping dust and memories under the carpet
that we purchased somewhere on some cool
retreat, somewhere in Africa somewhere

I've been trying to catch my breath from the illusion
that i lost it when you left me
I've been checking for the weather and the
time I'm like a bag that's dropped and drifting in the
wind that blows from hurricanes that comes just after
grey clouds fill my eyes

I've been trying to find my footing on the slopes of
the illusion that i lost it when you left me
Like bare feet on hot concrete, we have
come to some division based on pain from
bare decisions just like clothespins snapped by
wild winds sometimes you can't hold on to love and never die

I've been planting all the flowers that you like with
the hope them will take root and smell the blossom
when the wind blows as we sit deep in the garden
sipping tea as i watch you looking at me
I've been trying to find reality a grip on the illusion
that i lost you when you left me
