The Carpenters - This Masquerade

Are we
really happy
With this lonely game
we play
Looking for
the right 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
Each time
I see your eyes
And no matter
how hard I try
To understand
the reason
Why we carry
on this way
We're lost
in this masquerade
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
Each time
I see your eyes
And no matter
how hard I try
To understand
the reason
Why we carry
on this way
We're lost
in this masquerade
We're lost
in this masquerade
Are we
really happy
With this lonely game
we play
Looking for
the right 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
Each time
I see your eyes
And no matter
how hard I try
To understand
the reason
Why we carry
on this way
We're lost
in this masquerade
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
Each time
I see your eyes
And no matter
how hard I try
To understand
the reason
Why we carry
on this way
We're lost
in this masquerade
We're lost
in this masquerade
