When light became darkness, when water became dust
What used to be fresh air, today stinks of distrust
Smoke and mirrors, whispers, secrets, suspicious behavior
Today are the malt to my whiskey's flavour
'Cause when I'm drunk I find the courage to face the truth
I thought she was the water from the fountain of youth
So I can only blame myself for being such a fool
I thought she was the water from the fountain of youth

Each frame of this movie was a piece of art
Without dust n' scratches or any kind of scars
From the script, opening credits, till the final cut
You were Ava Gardner, playing Susan on The Little Hut

Shouldn't it be easier?
Did it need to be so hard?
Love should be easier
It hits me like a bullet straight through my heart

Smoke and mirrors, whispers, secrets, suspicious behavior
Today are the malt to my whiskey's flavour
And I need to be drunk to face the truth, so
Tell me
Do I really need this shit?
