Ethereal Disguise

Whispers float on a velvet breeze
Shadow steps beneath the trees
The moon wears clouds like borrowed lace
Hiding its glow in a secret place

I chase the shimmer of a fleeting star
But it slips away
Always too far

Ethereal disguise
Your beauty hides
Dancing in the dark
Where the mystic collides
I reach for you
You fade from view
Ethereal disguise
I can't see through

Your voice drips like silver rain
A melody I can't contain
Fingers trace the edges of night
But they fall through the endless light

What's real
What's illusion
In this soft confusion
A mirror cracks
The truth refracts
And I'm caught in your abstraction

Ethereal disguise
Your beauty hides
Dancing in the dark
Where the mystic collides
I reach for you
You fade from view
Ethereal disguise
I can't see through
