(IM afraid) the masquerade is over
Your eyes dont shine like they used like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone gone when your lips meet mine
Im afraid the masquerade is over over over
And so is love my darling and so is love
Your words dont mean what they used what they used to me
They were once inspired now theyre just routine
Im afraid the masquerade is all over is all over
And so is love and so is love
I guess Ill have to play pagliacci and get myself a clowns disguise
And learn learn to laugh like pagliacci with tears in my eyes
You look oh baby you look the same
Youre a lot a lot a lot a lot the same
But my heart says no no youre not the same
And Im afraid Im afraid the masquerade is all over over
And so is love and so is love
So is love the masquerade is all over
So so is love
