Masquerade
Ted Black 

The light will fade,
I’ll meet you at the masquerade.
While are hearts are swinging
To violins singing til dawn.
Lady dressed in jade,
Hold me tight at the masquerade.
If the music halts, dear,
Then my heart will waltz,
Dear, right on.
Twelve o’clock is climbing 
On the clock above.
Now if you’ll unmask your heart,
I’ll love you, love you.
Midnight shadows fade,
No one’s left at the masquerade.
Everything is through, dear,
But my love for you,dear, lives on.
