Introduced as strangers we played a masquerade
Trading ordinary civilities words leading astray
She didn't know the evenings we had spent
She didn't know that lovers will deceive even their friends
Drinks, perfume, and sweating
Empty words of love
The atmosphere was sinking as she moved across the floor
She didn't see the glances what they meant
She didn't see that lover's will deceive even their friends
Just like a movie romance
Two people hurting someone with a slow dance
And I'm sure it would take her to extremes
If she knew what we'd done to her dreams
With the love that we have
With the love that we hide
She does not see our deception
Clandestine plan to meet
I said goodnight to her early
She'll have dreams perfectly sweet
She doesn't know that together we will sleep
She doesn't know that lovers will deceive even their friends
For the love that we have our silent tragedy
For the love that we hide
I won't tell her what she can't see
She didn't know the evenings we had spent
She didn't know that lovers will deceive even their friends
