Lyrics for (I'm Afraid) The Masquerade Is Over
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine And the thrill is gone, when your lips meet mine And I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love Your words that don't mean what they used to mean They were once inspired Now they're just routine And I'm afraid, the masquerade is over, it's all over And so is love, and so is love Guess I'll have to play Pagliacci And get myself a clown's disguise And learn to laugh like Pagliacci with tears in my eyes You look, you look the same You're a lot the same But my heart tells me "No No you are not the same" And I'm afraid, the masquerade is over, over And so is love, and so is love, and so is love, and so is love yes It's all over And so is love
