The crowd comes strolling in
The curtains open, the show begins
He waves his hands, they stare in awe
Captivated from what they saw
Look what's happening, oh how they stare
Smoke and mirrors, a perfect pair
A sleight of hand, a twist of fate, my true love here, did I fixate
A sleight of hand, a twist of fate, my true life here is mine to take
She comes dancin' 'cross the stage
Her triumph, infuriates
It's no illusion, this affair
He will be mine, this I do swear
Look what's happening, might not be fair
Smoke and mirrors, a perfect pair
A sleight of hand, a twist of fate, my true love here, did I fixate
A sleight of hand, a twist of fate, her departure I just cannot wait
Before too long it will be only us
Our problems gone and know that she'll be dead
