This Masquerade Leon
Russell, Carpenters, George Benson
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 a mas - 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
Fm Fm(M7) Fm7 Bb9 Db7 C7 Fm
To understand the reasons / Why
we carry on this way / And 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
