When we played our charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games
Acting out names
Guessin’ the parts we played.
We were like children posing
Playing at games
Acting out names
Guessin’ the parts we played.
Oh what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill
Lovers until …
Love left a masquerade
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill
Lovers until …
Love left a masquerade
Fate seemed to pulI the string
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wing
The music box played on
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wing
The music box played on
Sad little serenade
Song of my heart’s composing
I hear it still
I always will
Best on the bill, charade
Song of my heart’s composing
I hear it still
I always will
Best on the bill, charade
Fate seemed to pull the string
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wing
The music box played on and on
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wing
The music box played on and on
Sad little serenade
Song of my heart’s composing
I hear it still
Guess I always will
Best on the bill, charade!
Song of my heart’s composing
I hear it still
Guess I always will
Best on the bill, charade!
