Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine I'm afraid that the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love Your words don't mean what they used to mean They were once inspired, now they're just routine I'm afraid that the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci And build myself a clown's disguise And then learn to laugh like Pagliacci With tears in my eyes You look the same But no, you're not the same But my heart cries "no, no, you're not the same" I'm afraid that the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci And build myself a clown's disguise And then learn to laugh like Pagliacci With tears in my eyes You look the same No, you look the same But my heart cries "no, no, you're not the same" I'm afraid that the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love
