The Performance of My Life
A brave face
Stiff upper lip will do the trick
Ooh, the mask is firm
The face is mine
It seems fine
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
What's the truth?
Well, I won't bore you with the truth
I knew it would be tough
Right from day one, but you go on
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
Made it to the top
Although the road was steep
And then I had a dream
A vision of love revealed in sleep
Right on queue
I feel in love with you
You caused many a tear
But I had applause, I had a career
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
Stiff upper lip will do the trick
Ooh, the mask is firm
The face is mine
It seems fine
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
What's the truth?
Well, I won't bore you with the truth
I knew it would be tough
Right from day one, but you go on
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
Made it to the top
Although the road was steep
And then I had a dream
A vision of love revealed in sleep
Right on queue
I feel in love with you
You caused many a tear
But I had applause, I had a career
Until the final day
I'll play this part the only way I can
For to live, I have to give
The performance of my life
