When we played our charade
We were like children posing
Playin' at games actin' out names
Guessin' the parts we played
Oh what a hit we made
We came on next to closin'
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 wings
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
Fate seemed to pull the strings
I turned and you were gone
While from the darkened wings
The music box played on
And a sad little serenade
Song of my heart's composing
I hear it still I always will
Best on the bill charade
