Charade
5 -5 5 -7 -6 5
When we played our charade
5 -5 5 -4 4 5 -3
We were like children posing.
-4 5 -4 -3 -4 5 -4 -3
Playing at games, acting out names
-4 5 -4 4 -3 4
Guessing the parts we played.
5 -5 5 -7 -6 5
Oh, what a hit we made!
5 -5 5 -4 4 5 -3
We came on next to closing.
-4 5 -4 -3 -4 5 -4 -3
Last on the bill, lovers until
-4 5 -4 4 -3 4
Love left the masquerade.
-6 -7 7 -7 6 5
Fate seemed to pull the strings.
4 -4 -6 -5 -4 6
I turned and you were gone.
-6 -7 7 -7 6 5
While from the darkened wings
4 -4 4 -4 4 5
The music box played on.
5 -5 5 -7 -6 5
Then we heard "Serenade."
5 -5 5 -4 4 5 -3
One that my heart composes.
-4 5 -4 -3 -4 5 -4 -3
I hear it still. I always will
-4 5 -4 7 -7 -6
That song of our charade.
