Masquerade / Why So Silent
guitar chords lyrics
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Masquerade
Hide your face, so the world will
never find you
Masquerade
Every face a different shade
Masquerade
Look around there's another
mask behind you
Flash of mauve
Splash of puce
Fool and king
Ghoul and goose
Green and black
Fool and king
Ghoul and goose
Green and black
Queen and priest
Trace of rouge
Face of beast
Faces
Take your turn, take a ride
on the merry-go-round
in an inhuman race
Eye of gold
Thigh of blue
True is false
Who is who
Curl of lip
Swirl of gown
Ace of hearts
Face of clown
Faces
Drink it in, drink it up, till you've drowned
in the light
in the sound
But who can name the face
Masquerade
Grinning yellows
spinning reds
Masquerade
Take your fill
let the spectacle astound you
Masquerade
Burning glances
turning heads
Masquerade
Stop and stare
at the sea of smiles
around you
Masquerade
Seething shadows
breathing lies
Masquerade
You can fool
any friend who
ever knew you
Masquerade
Leering satyrs, peering eyes
Masquerade
Run and hide, but a face will
still pursue you
What a night
What a crowd
Makes you glad
Makes you proud
All the creme
de la creme
Watching us watching them
And all our fears are in the past
Six months
Of relief
Of delight
Of Elysian peace
And we can breathe at last
No more notes
No more ghost
Here's a health
Here's a toast
to a prosperous year
Or trough our friend who are here
To the new chandelier
And may its
splendour never fade
Six months
What a joy
What a change
What a blessed release
And what a masquerade
Think of it, a scecret engagement
Look, your furture bride
Just think of it
But why is scecret
What have we to hide?
You promise me
No raoul, please they see
No well, let them see
it is a engagement not a crime
Christine where are you afraid of?
Christine & Raoul:
Let's no talking, please britent.
You will understand it at time
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Masquerade
Hide your face, so the world will
never find you
Masquerade
Every face a different shade
Masquerade
Look around there's another
mask behind you
Masquerade
Burning glances
turning heads
Masquerade
Stop and stare
at the sea of smiles
around you
Masquerade
Grinning yellows
spinning reds
Masquerade
Take your fill
let the spectacle astound you
