Lyrics
Your parties fall around you
Another night beckons to you
Your parties fall around you
Another night beckons to you
Shadows look as you resist the gloom
Faded hues issue forth and bloom
A bed of leaves for a lover
Awake with a kiss and rise asunder
And when the party's over
You retreat in a realm of slumber
In your mind, crystal lights rebound
Wheels spin round, and you hear the sound
Of Autumn's call at party's fall, Autumn's call
Through rose-tinted glass you still remember
The gladness, not sadness, only laughter
In your mind, vicious lights rebound
Wheels spin round, and you hear the sound
Of Autumn's call at party's fall, Autumn's call
The smile in the mirror grows weaker
The laughter you heard is growing fainter
Your parties fall around you
The night forgets to rouse you
Your party's fall astounds you
An aura of sadness abounds you
Glad rags sigh
Maybe you're alone
Maybe you're alone
Inside, don't hide
Hurting all the time
Hurting deep inside
Don't cry, don't cry
My happiness depends
On knowing this friend is never alone
On your own
A party on our own
We'll have a party on our own
Inside, no sighs
Don't cry, don't cry
