Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out, had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
[Verse 2]
Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out, I was losing my mind
Seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
[Chorus]
In between what I find is pleasing and I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing, there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you it's just no good
You teasing like you do
[Verse 3]
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out, had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
[Chorus]
Lost inside adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We could have made it cruising, yeah
[Bridge]
Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
[Verse 4]
Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
[Outro]
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
Ooh-oh
