Charade
When we play our charade
We were like children posing
Playing at games
Acting out names
Guessing the parts we play
We were like children posing
Playing at games
Acting out names
Guessing the parts we play
Oh what a hit we made
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill
Lovers until
Love left the masquerade
We came on next to closing
Best on the bill
Lovers until
Love left the masquerade
Fate seemed to pull the strings
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 strings
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
GuessI always will
Best on the bill
Charade
Song of my heart's composing
I hear it still
GuessI always will
Best on the bill
Charade
