I paint my face with gold and red, and tell myself now this is it
the shadow of my silhoutte cast on the door

They told me I could never be worth a thousand melodies
nor have they seen how much it means to me

Suddenly! Suddenly! In this masquerade
I turn away, turn away, from this fool's parade
I will make it on my own

Chorus:
In the light of evening star, on the Sunset Boulevard
I remember within my heart
the dream I was after, the sound of your laughter, the tears I cried

You will not see me turning back
Don't say there is no wonderland
I'll show you I will find the way
So much it means to me

Unchanging winds calling my name
Carrying a thousand melodies
Don't say life is unfair, just live to tell

Suddenly! Suddenly! In this masquerade
I turn away, turn away, from this fool's parade
I will make it on my own

Chorus
