we remember when bards at the masquerade
raised up crystal cups and toasted to our names
they sang of greater days and then they put on a play
accounts of love and loss of kings and fools and knaves
bend and turn, flourish hands
wishing for an encore at the end
there is life in these walls, calling out for applause
there is sound in these throats, let it out, getting hoarse
twist and shape, stories bend
round your words these fables have no end
we remember when strangers asked our names
soon to become our friends, but it was all a play
laughter and voices warm hold us close to home
gone without goodbyes and now the curtains close
take your bow, step off stage
our next act is waiting in the wings
do your feet long to dance? Pound the floor, come on up
now's your chance, ask for more, all join hands, no more mask
twist and shape, stories bend
round your words these fables have no end
keep your feet on the mark
eyes to the crowd, stick to the script
there is life in these walls, calling out for applause
there is sound in these throats, let it out, getting hoarse
twist and shape, stories bend
round your words these fables have no end
