i m afraid the masquerade is over

Etta Jones

My blue horizon is turning grey
And my dreams are drifting away
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, and 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
I 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 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, and so is love
I 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 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, and so is love
