Lyrics

[00:36.97] Well this is such a sad affair
[00:45.78] I've opened up my heart oh so many times
[01:01.42] But now it's closed
[01:08.30] Oh my dear
[01:16.36] Every salted tear it wrings
[01:24.47] Bitter-sweet applause
[01:34.31] But when the show is in full swing
[01:38.32]
[01:40.90] Every once in a while
[01:48.50] High stepping chorus lines mean I'm forgetting
[01:56.63] Mein lullaby-liebchen
[02:24.44] How rich in contrast love can be
[02:33.14] Sometimes I'm quite amused
[02:40.41] To see it twist and turn
[02:45.81] To taste both sweet and dry
[02:55.73] These vintage years
[03:03.59] Lovers you consume my friend
[03:10.28] As others their wine
[03:18.20] Nein das ist nicht
[03:22.32] Das ende der welt
[03:26.36] Gestrandet an leben und kunst
[03:36.32] Und das spiel geht weiter
[03:39.73] Wie man weiss
[03:43.37] Noch viele sch'nste wiedershen
[03:54.54]
[04:10.71] And now as you turn to leave
[04:19.60] You try to force a smile as if to compensate
[04:31.90] Then you break down and cry
