Song Lyrics
And still some times remember, the masquerade s forever, beneath the black and empty sky
like ghosts in some forgotten play
they reached for tomorrow
the players try to leave the room
with partners chosen by chance
i m sure you ll come and join the masquerade
when you hear the price they paid
knock on doors and empty halls
Down beyond the boulevard, the masquerade s forever, the reeling figures pass on by
The masquerade s forever, beneath the black and empty sky
They reached for tomorrow, with partners chosen by chance Masquerade, the painted faces on the street
And all the while the music sings, the masquerade s forever
But tomorrow never came, and all the while the music sings Berlin, more of the same
so they reached for tomorrow
But tomorrow never came, so they reached for tomorrow, beneath the black and empty sky
And still sometimes remember, and all the while the music sings, but tomorrows
with partners chosen by chance
beneath the black and empty sky
When you hear the price they paid, the painted faces on the street, and still sometimes remember
And still sometimes remember, the masquerade s forever Berlin, but tomorrow never came
When you hear the price they paid, the masquerade s forever Berlin, the painted faces on the street
Frantic puppets on a string, so they reached for tomorrow, and still sometimes remember
I m sure you ll come and join the masquerade, the reeling figures pass on by
Past eight by tens in shattered frames, so they reached for tomorrow, the masquerade s forever
Like ghosts in some forgotten play, the painted faces on the street
The masquerade s forever, but tomorrows Berlin, down beyond the boulevard
Knock on doors and empty halls, when you hear the price they paid Masquerade, beneath the black and empty sky
So they reached for tomorrow, one by one and two by two
Oh they were young and oh so sweet, and still sometimes remember Berlin, caricatures of long ago
When you hear the price they paid, when you hear the price they paid
And still sometimes remember, down beyond the boulevard
and still sometimes remember
When you hear the price they paid, i m sure you ll come and join the masquerade Masquerade, they reached for tomorrow
Caricatures of long ago, the masquerade s forever
Past eight by tens in shattered frames, the painted faces on the street
and still sometimes remember
More of the same, but tomorrow never came, when you hear the price they paid
past eight by tens in shattered frames
when you see the price they paid
But tomorrow never came, and still some times remember
And still some times remember, so they reached for tomorrow
the painted faces on the street
and still some times remember
Caricatures of long ago, so they reached for tomorrow
past eight by tens in shattered frames
With partners chosen by chance, one by one and two by two
