Fm FmMaj7 Fm7 Bb Are we really happy here in this lonely game we play

Looking for words to say

Fm FmMaj7 Fm7 Bb Searching but not finding understanding anywhere

We're lost in a masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just to far away

>From being close together from the start

We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way

Were lost inside this lonely game we play

Fm FmMaj7 Fm7 Bb Hearts of weeping disappear every time I see your smile

No matter how hard I try

Fm FmMaj7 Fm7 Bb To understand the reasons that we carry on this way

We're lost in a masquerade.
