(FerryMackay)



Well this is such

A sad affair

Ive opened up my heart

So many times

But now its closed

Oh my dear

Every salted tear

It wrings

Bitter - sweet applause

But when the shows in full swing

Every once in a while

High stepping chorus lines

Mean Im forgetting

Mein lullaby - liebchen

How rich in contrast

Love can be

Sometimes Im quite amused

To see it twist and turn

To taste - both sweet and dry

These vintage years!

Lovers you consume, my friend

As others their wine

Nein - das ist nicht

Das ende der welt

Gestrandet an leben und kunst

Und das spiel geht weiter

Wie man weiss

Noch viele schnste...wiedershen

And now, as you turn to leave

You try to force a smile -

As if to compensate -

Then you break down and cry
