Stevie Wonder - Story

(I'm Afraid) the Masquerade Is Over

Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone, when your lips meet mine

And I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love

Your words that don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired
Now they're just routine

And I'm afraid, the masquerade is over, it's all over
And so is love, and so is love

Guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci with tears in my eyes

You look, you look the same
You're a lot the same
But my heart tells me "No
No you are not the same"

And I'm afraid, the masquerade is over, over
And so is love, and so is love, and so is love, and so is love yes
It's all over
And so is love
