Talk talk - The Party's Over (6 09) lyrics

(Mark Hollis / Simon Brenner / Paul Webb / Lee Harris)

The party's over

I never thought you'd stay

The love of laughter

My truth's no longer sane

The party's over

Much older than you'd say

This friend of no one

Time creases on your face

Take a look at

the kids

I've been losing track

This crime of being uncertain of your love

Is all I'm guilty of

The party's over

I never thought you'd stay

A style of reason

This life of masquerade

Take a look at the kids

I've been losing track

This crime of bein

G uncertain of your love

Is all I'm guilty of

Take this punishment away Lord

Name the crime I'm guilty of

Too much hope I've seen as virtue

Name the crime I'm guilty of
