(I'm Afraid) The Masquerade Is Over
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shineAnd the thrill is gone when your lips meet mineI'm afraid the masquerade is overAnd so is love, and so is loveYour words don't mean what they used to meanThey were once inspired, now they're just routineI'm afraid the masquerade is overAnd so is love, and so is loveI guess I'll have to play PagliacciAnd get myself a clown's disguiseAnd learn to laugh like PagliacciWith tears in my eyesYou look the same, you're a lot the sameBut my heart says, 'No, no, you're not, you're not the same'I'm afraid the masquerade is overAnd so is love, and so is loveI guess I'll have to play PagliacciAnd get myself a clown's disguiseAnd learn to laugh like PagliacciWith tears in my eyesYou look, you look the same, you're a lot the sameBut my heart says, 'No, no, you're not the same'I'm afraid the masquerade is overAnd so is love, and so is love Aus Songtexte Mania
