The Masquerade Is Over
LEON RUSSELL · Life Journey 2014 · Track 09 of 09
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, so is love
Your words don't mean what they used to mean They were once inspired, now they're just routine I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love
Guess I'll have to play Pagliacci And get myself a clown's disguise Learn to laugh like Pagliacci With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same But my heart says, "No, no you're not the same" I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, so is love
You look the same, you're a lot the same But my heart says, "No, no you're not the same" I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, so is love
