And now the Show is over...
Draw the faded curtains,
Shroud me please at any cost.
I wish only to hide in darkness,
And forget this countless loss.
You brilliant Cassanova...
You led me and I followed,
With joyously open arms.
Your words were sweet songs floating on the breeze,
And I was prey to your devious charms.
You sensuous Serenader...
You were music rippling through me,
The stars guiding me always.
You were the light that banished my fears,
Life was a dream in a rainbow haze.
You marvellous Dream Weaver...
I didn't want this play to end.
I never wanted you to leave.
You were pulled by something beyond us,
Bitter memories make my heart grieve.
A splendid grand Finale...
Can't you hear them applauding wildly?
Magnificent acting on your part.
I was Reality, you were the Dream
Draw the curtains and end the past...
