Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I think this party is going badly
Is there something wrong?
I see faces looking sadly
Have I stayed too long?
[Verse 2]
Even though I see me smile
That same scene and acting wild
Pretending that I really care
A smiling face is just a mask
[Verse 3]
Without love a kiss ain't nothing
Have I done something wrong?
I look around and I can't find nothing
Have I stayed too long?
[Verse 4]
Without beginning there ain't no end
Without a hope, you got no friends
Have I grown from loving you
To find out what's behind my tears?
[Verse 5]
I got to get out of this place
I, I'm tired of wearing this phony face
[Verse 6]
I think this party is going badly
Is there something wrong?
I see faces looking sadly
I guess I'm going home
[Verse 7]
Even though you see me smile
That same scene acting wild
Pretending that I really care
A smiling face is just a mask
[Verse 8]
Do, do, do-do-do
Do, do-do-do
Written by: Carl Sigman, Gilbert Bécaud, P Delenoe, Sonny Bono
