Benson, George - Masquerade Is Over Lyrics
My blue horizon is turning grey
And my dreams are drifting away
Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine
And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine
And so is love, and so is love
Your words don't mean what they used to mean
They were once inspired, now they're just routine
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "no, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love
[Instrumental interlude]
I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci
And get myself a clown's disguise
And learn to laugh like Pagliacci
With tears in my eyes
You look the same, you're a lot the same
But my heart says "No, no, you're not the same"
I'm afraid the masquerade is over
And so is love, and so is love

Very nice indeed! Total Jazz Café vibe. Doesn't get any better than G. B!

Who's playing p?
Herbie Hancock
This version is the best.. It takes me back to many many years ago...
I just love Benson's rendition of this song. As with so many great songs, his version will always be my favorite:)
Are there any live renditions of this song by George?
His rendition of any songs are better than originals of others :)
Have you checked out the Nancy Wilson and cannonball adderly version ?
