Your eyes don't shine like they used, like they used to shine   And the thrill is gone, gone, when your lips meet mine      I'm afraid the masquerade is over, over, over   And so is love, my darling and so is love      Your words don't mean what they used, what they used to mean   They were once inspired, now they're just routine      I'm afraid, oh the masquerade is, it's all over, it's all 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, oh baby, you look the same   You're a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, the same   But my heart says "No, no, no, no, no, you are not the same"      And I'm afraid, I'm afraid the masquerade, oh it's all over, over, oh   And so is love, and so is love, love, love, love   So is love, oh the masquerade is all over   So, so is love
