J. J. Cale - Artificial Paradise текст песни

Many loves in a lifetime, they seem to go astray

Many people come and go, they never seem to stay

Sometimes I kid myself, then I realise

Im just living in an artificial paradise

A hundred times, my hopes and dreams are blown into the air

A thousand times, it always seems no one is really there

Then I know Im fooling myself, Im not so wise

Im just living in an artificial paradise

Plastic state of mind, superficial clothes

Living in a vacuum, close to zero

Sometimes I kid myself, then I realise

Im just living in an artificial paradise
