The Greatest Performance of My Life (2000 Remaster)

Tonight i gave the greatest performance of my life

I never lost control i played the part so well

That not a single soul could tell that i was lying

And so though it was hard to face our friends i gave a party

I know i meant to show them all i’ve gotten over you

And though i saw the unbelieving looks on all their faces

I had to try to make them think that it was true

So i who had me dance dance through the night just like the gypsy

And i who seldom drink drank like a fish till i was high and i

Who hadn’t laughed since god knows when out laughed pagliacci

Till they believed it more than even i

Tonight i gave the greatest performance of my life

I never lost control i played the part so well

That not a single soul could tell that i was lying

But love if you had been behind the curtain when it fell

all When the lights were out and i was all alone

You would have seen this actress crying

Yes tonight i gave the greatest performance of my life

I never lost control i played the part so well

That not a single soul could tell that i was lying

But love if you had been behind the curtain when it fell

all When the lights were out and i was all alone

You would have seen this actress crying
