The Party's Over - 1960 Version
The party's over, it's time to call it a day
They've burst your pretty balloon
And taken the moon away
It's time to wind up the masquerade
Just make your mind up
The piper must be paid
The party's over, the candles flicker and dim
You danced and dreamed through the night
It seemed to be right just being with him
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Almost over, my friend
The party's over, the candles flicker and dim
The evening she was apart, just sitting on your own
And been with you
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party it's all over
My friend, almost over my friend
My friend
They've burst your pretty balloon
And taken the moon away
It's time to wind up the masquerade
Just make your mind up
The piper must be paid
The party's over, the candles flicker and dim
You danced and dreamed through the night
It seemed to be right just being with him
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party's over
Almost over, my friend
The party's over, the candles flicker and dim
The evening she was apart, just sitting on your own
And been with you
Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party it's all over
My friend, almost over my friend
My friend
