Masquerade Songtext
von Sérgio Mendes

There are lines in life to show you the way to say goodbye
There are signs in life to comfort the love that wonders why
But there′s no lines that come to me
And there's no signs that I can see
But where′s the love that used to be in your eyes?

There's a masquerade of feeling pretending that you care
Empty smile's upon your face when the light is in your hair
But there′s no feelings that we can share
Providing love that isn′t there
Perhaps a world alone and bare is what we are

You alone are in my thoughts, dear, stealing all this painfulness
Tears belong to those who cry, we're prisoners of loneliness
Can you hide this kind of feeling flowing from your every move?
Please be kind if not revealing a broken heart will always lose.

In your eyes...
