Van Morrison
The Party’s Over
[Intro: Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
The party's over
It's time to call it a day
They've burst your pretty balloon, taken the moon away (yes)
Time to wind up
This masquerade
Just make your mind up
The piper must be paid

[Chorus]
The party's over
Oh, candle's flicker and stir
We danced and dreamed all through the night
Seemed so right
Bein' with her
But you've got to wake up
Wake up
All dreams must end
Take off your makeup

[Post-Chorus]
The party's over
It's all over
[Interlude: Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Party's over
Yeah, the flicker and stir
We danced and dreamed all through the night
Seemed so right
Bein' with her
But you've got to wake up
Wake up, wake up
All dreams must end
Take off your makeup

[Post-Chorus]
The party's over
It's all over
My friend

[Outro]
The party's over
