Udo Jürgens
The Music Played
An angry silence lay
Where love had been
And in your eyes a look
I`ve never seen

If I had found the words
You might have stayed
But as I turned to speak
The music played

As lovers danced their way
Around the floor
I sat and watched you walk
Towards the door

I heard a friend of yours
Suggest you stayed
And as you took his hand
The music played

Across the darkened room
The fatal signs I saw
You`ve been something more
Than friends before

While I was serving you
By clinging to my pride
He had been waiting
And I drove you to side
I couldn't say the things
I should have said
Refused to let my heart
Control my head

But I was made to see
The price I paid
And as he held you close
The music played
And as I lost your love
The music played
