There Is No Illusion In This World That Cannot Be Undone Lyrics

Outside the action of the evening

You pull away from me

Tap your cigarette against the railing of the old house we used to live in

As the ash falls down into the snow below

You ask me if I'm happy with my life

How different it could've all been if you'd ended up my wife

You put out your cigarette and put back on your coat

And recede into the house leaving me alone with my thoughts

I know I made the right choice then

The weather report says we're due for a foot of snow

And I for one am glad to have nowhere else to go

Put out the last candle that you left lit

Put away the food and the trays from the party we had

'Cause now it's just me and it's just me alone

God I'm so glad it's just me alone

There's no illusion in this world that can't be undone
