Masquerade /Why So Silent -Andrew Lloyd Webber （德鲁·劳埃德·韦伯）/Original London Cast
Written by ：Andrew Lloyd Webber
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Masquerade
Hide your face
So the world will
Never find you
Masquerade
Every face a different shade
Masquerade
Look around
There's another
Mask behind you
Flash of mauve
Splash of puce
Fool and king
Ghoul and goose
Green and black
Queen and priest
Trace of rouge
Face of beast
Faces
Take your turn take a ride
On the merry-go-round
In an inhuman race
Thigh of blue
True is false
Who is who
Curl of lip
Swirl of gown
Ace of hearts
Face of clown
Faces
Drink it in drink it up
Till you've drowned
In the light
In the sound
But who can name the face
Masquerade
Grinning yellows
Spinning reds
Masquerade
Take your fill
Let the spectacle
Astound you
Masquerade
Burning glances
Turning heads
Masquerade
Stop and stare
At the sea of smiles
Around you
Masquerade
Seething shadows
Breathing lies
Masquerade
You can fool
Any friend who
Ever knew you
Masquerade
Leering satyrs
Peering eyes
Masquerade
Run and hide
But a face will
Still pursue you
What a night
What a crowd
Makes you glad
Makes you proud
All the creme
De la creme
Watching us watching them
And all our fears
Are in the past
Six months
Of relief
Of delight
Of Elysian peace
And we can breathe at last
No more notes
No more ghost
Here's a health
Here's a toast:
To a prosperous year
To the new chandelier
And may it's
Splendour never fade
Six months
What a joy
What a change
What a blessed release
And what a masquerade
Think of it
A secret engagement
Look your future bride
Just think of it
But why a secret
What have we to hide
You promised me
No Raoul please don't let them see
Well let them see
It's an engagement
Not a crime
Christine what are you afraid of
Let's not argue
Let's not argue
Please pretend
I can only hope
You will understand in time
I'll understand in time
Masquerade
Paper faces on parade
Masquerade
Hide your face
So the world will
Never find you
Masquerade
Every face a different shade
Masquerade
Look around
There's another
Mask behind you
Masquerade
Burning glances
Turning heads
Masquerade
Stop and stare
At the sea of smiles
Around you
Masquerade
Grinning yellows
Spinning reds
Masquerade
Take your fill
Let the spectacle
Astound you
Why so silent good Messieurs
Did you think
That I had left you for good
Have you missed me
Good Messieurs
I have written you an opera
Here I bring the finished score
Don Juan Triumphant
Your chains are still mine
You will sing for me
