BOZ SCAGGS lyrics : "Illusion"

All he can do
Is turn the other way
Although he'd love to love you


Your eyes deceive
Your lovers leave

And you go crawling again
Into your shadows and then


Run away
Why don't you just run off
And hide once again

In your damned illusion

Nights so sweet

The perfume beats
Into your veins and then
It's all insane again


Feelings burn
The blues return

Those lips are calling
And you go falling and falling and falling


Run away
Why don't you just run off
And hide once again

In your damned illusion.. yeah

Run away

Why don't you just run off
and hide once again
In your damned illusion


You can run off baby but you know that
You just can't hide no more

From your lowdown ways
Can't get away from your damned illusions
Ooh aint it hard babe just to get through the night

When you can't see the light for your damned illusion

You can run off babe

Once again your fooling around
In your damned illusion.. yeah.. yeah


Once again you will fall into you damned illusion



10. *Follow That Man
(Boz Scaggs)


You take one part Buddha
And two parts cat
Run them through your computer

And that's where he's at
Some say he's ruthless
And some say he's a saint

They tell you he's innocent
I tell you he aint


I hear him think
I follow his flight
I'd know that footstep

In the darkest of nights

I follow that man


He's a creature of stealth
Don't run with the mob

Won't stop at nothing
Till he finishes the job


I hear him out there laughing
When he knows I'm closing in
I feel the desperation

Of the fool within
He's like your shadow
You can stop it dead
But when you go to take him
He's a step ahead


I follow that man

[I follow from a distance
As he appears

Between the darkness and the light
Meeted curtains part
He takes a drink
He takes a smoke
Takes a paper

He takes me along for the ride
I snatch his bag
We go deeper
Into the quarter
Through a rain slaked dampness into an alley

The smell of garbage and perfume
Brick by brick
His woman meets me
But it doesn't matter
Anyway, whose chasing who
I'm just holding the bag]


I hear him out there laughing
When he knows I'm closing in
I feel the desperation
I hear him think
I follow his flight
I'd know that footstep

In the darkest of nights

I follow that man
I follow that man

I watch him smoke
I watch him drink

I follow that man
I follow that man
