Charade

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 a 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 on

Sad little serenade
Song of my heart's composing
I hear it still, I guess I always will
Best on the bill charade
