Trick of Light by Emma Lock

Lyrics

Trick of light

Do you like what you see babe?
Cause it’s a reflection.
A world of mirrors in which we peer
Did you lose your direction?
We’re pure energy, you see
Just a vibration
When you’re walking towards me
What’s your intention?

We’re just a trick of light
You beware, don’t stop and stare
We’re just a trick of light
You take care, tread lightly there
We’re just a trick of light

Do you like what you see babe?
Cause it’s a reflection.
You see you in me, oh yeah
That’s deflection
There me in here you see
Get beyond your reaction
And when you walk away from me
Check your vibration

We’re just a trick of light
You beware, don’t stop and stare
We’re just a trick of light
You take care, tread lightly there
We’re just a trick of light

Do you like what you see babe?
Cause it’s a reflection.
The love you see in me oh yeah
Gives one love direction
We’re pure energy, you see
Just raise your vibration
