The Masquerade Is Over (Rerecorded)

The Masquerade Is Over (Rerecorded) - George Benson

Your eyes don't shine not like they used to shine

And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine

I'm afraid the masquerade is over

And so is love and so is love

Your words baby don't mean what they used to mean

They were once inspired now they're just routine

I'm afraid the masquerade is over

And so is love and so so is love

I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci

And get myself a clown's disguise

And learn learn to laugh like Pagliacci

With tears in my eyes

You look the same you're a lot a lot the same

But my heart says No no no no no you're not

No you're not the same

I'm afraid the masquerade is over

And so is love and so is love

I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci

And get myself a clown's disguise

And learn learn to laugh like Pagliacci

With tears in my eyes

You look you look the same you're a lot

You're a lot the same

But my heart says No no no no no you're not

No you're not the same

I'm afraid

I'm afraid

I'm afraid

The masquerade is over

And so is love and so is love
