(I’m Afraid) The Masquerade is Over (Version 2)
[Verse 1]
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine
[Chorus]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, love, love
[Verse 2]
Your words don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
[Chorus]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over, yeah
So is love, so is love
[Bridge]
Guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
Get myself a clown's disguise
Learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears all in my eyes
[Verse 3]
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart tells me "No, no, you're not the same"
[Outro]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
So is love, so is love, so is love
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine
[Chorus]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, love, love
[Verse 2]
Your words don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
[Chorus]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over, yeah
So is love, so is love
[Bridge]
Guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
Get myself a clown's disguise
Learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears all in my eyes
[Verse 3]
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart tells me "No, no, you're not the same"
[Outro]
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
So is love, so is love, so is love
