Dusty Springfield-Broken Blossoms (with lyrics)
I walk where once the grass was green And mourn the lark that sings no more What bird could sing whose eyes have seen Broken blossoms on the field of war? And as they lie there in the sun How unimportant now it seems Just who has lost and who has won When with them have died so many dreams They dreamed that endless hate would end Unceasing fear, one day, would cease They dreamed that foe would turn to friend And eternal war would turn to peace But who can say how many more Will join these young and hopeful men? In fields they've never seen before Far from fields they'll never see again

With Lyrics Your eyes don't shine like they used to shine And the thrill is gone when your lips meet mine I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love Your words don't mean what they used to mean They were once inspired, now they're just routine I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love I guess I'll have to play Pagliacci And get myself a clown's disguise And learn to laugh like Pagliacci With tears in my eyes You look the same, you're a lot the same But my heart says "no, no, no, no, you're not the same" I'm afraid the masquerade is over And so is love, and so is love
