Words of love roll off your tongue
So easily
They blind me to the point
I don't even see
All these nights you're somewhere else
I'm killing time all by myself
But I know you'll call
You always do

(Chorus)
Masquerade of a fool
Living a lie
Believing it's true
How long can I
Keep up this charade
Hiding behind
The masquerade of a fool

The way you say my name
Makes me forget
Promises you've made
But never met
Even though I know it's wrong
I'm still here hanging on
Hopelessly forever
In love with you

(Repeat Chorus)

How long can I
Keep up this charade
Hiding behind
The masquerade of a fool
Hiding behind
The masquerade of a fool
