Masquerade lyrics

There's a stranger in my bed

Lighting up a cigarette

Looking at me like he's lost

There's a letter by his side

Burning with the reasons why

Our mask has finally dropped

Cos now he looks at me

And it's like I don't even know him

And when he touches me

I've forgotten how to hold him

How can you call it love if

You never show your face

Did we fall in love in the middle of

The middle of a masquerade

The middle of a masquerade

Now there's a foreign taste on his tongue

I'm trying to translate what we've become

But I can make sense of him when we're together

And maybe I got caught up in dreams

And it wasn't quite what it seems

But you can't hide behind the truth forever

Cos now he talks to me

And it's like I don't ever know him

And when he touches me

I've forgotten how to hold him

How can you call it love if

You never show your face

Did we fall in love in the middle of

The middle of a masquerade

Now the one I fell for

Is gone without a trace

Did we fall in love in the middle of

The middle of a masquerade

The middle of a masquerade

Tell me do we fall in love

By the bedside (I don't even know who you are)

On the train ride (I don't ever know who you are)

With his shoes tied (I don't ever know who you are)

And your brown eyes (I don't even know who you are)

When you touch me (I don't even know who you are)

In your blue jeans (I don't even know who you are)

Say you love me (I don't even know who you are)

But you don't know me (I don't even know who you are)

Say you love me (I don't even know who you are)

You say you love me

In the middle of a masquerade
