George Benson
This Masquerade 


Are we really happy with this lonely game we play 
Looking for words to say 
Searching but not finding understanding anyway 
We're lost in this masquerade 
Both afraid to say we're just too far away 
From being close together from the start 
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way 
We're lost inside this lonely game we play 
Thoughts of leaving disappear every time I see your eyes 
No matter how hard I try 
To understand the reason that we carry on this way 
We're lost in a masquerade 
We could just start over but it's oh so hard to do 
When you're lost in a masquerade
