Words by Doug Ingle

In my mind I see a mirage on the wall
What a fortune that lay, it's not there at all
So I guess I'll draw my mirage on the wall
So it can be here to see and enjoyed by all

My Mirage, I'll be drawing you soon
Then all of the beautiful people that come to our home
They'll be seeing you soon
My mirage, they'll be seeing you soon
