Lyrics - Maya's Dance by Donovan

See my own reflection in the water
If
I concentrate, the image still
I look kind of real just like
I oughta
Be just a splash and
Maya's secrets spill
Can't stop this illusion that
I-
DOGiving myself burdens
Mighty
Grim
Let me dig and twig there's nothing
TO-
DOEverything in order, evolving
All appearances can be deceiving in
Maya's
Dance
Feeling alter views, out of shape and out of true
Must be this illusion that makes
ME-
FEELAll this pain and pleasure is my own
I-identify with duality
Whe
I am the
ONE to lead me home
All appearances can be deceiving in
Maya's
Dance
Feeling alter views, out of shape and out of true
But here
I am again associating
Choosing one or the other again
While the tiny dewdrop on the blossom
Reflects my tiny image once again
All appearances can be deceiving in
Maya's
Dance
Feeling alter views, out of shape and out of true
Must be some good things to say about
MANBut one of them ain't that he's
Aware
Alice had it right when she stepped over
Into
Mirror land, the
Truth is there
All appearances can be deceiving in
Maya's
Dance
Feeling alter views, out of shape and out of true
