The Party's Over

(album: The Fabulous Shirley Bassey - 1959)

The party's over
It's time to call it a day
They've burst your
Pretty balloon

And taken the moon away
It's time to wind up

The masquerade
Just make your mind up

The piper must be paid

The party's over
The candles flicker and dim
You danced and dreamed
Through the night
It seemed to be right

Just being with him
Now you must wake up
All dreams must end
Take off your makeup
The party's over
It's all over

My friend

You danced and dreamed
Through the night
It seemed to be right

Just being with him
Now you must wake up
All dreams must end
Take off your makeup
The party's over
It's all over

My friend
