Intro
Durban how you all doing tonight?
If you like Black Coffee say yeah!

Chorus
Coz now your little masquerade is over
I've gathered all my things now I'm on my way
Coz now your little masquerade is over
I've gathered all my things, now I'm on my way
Listen

Verse 1
My father said "boy be careful, she seems like trouble"
I thought it was because he couldn't stand to see me happy
(*)
I guess I was a fool thinking that I could get through to you
Coz I was always there for you, through your struggles and your pain
Everything I had I gave it all to you
I raised your son as my own
How could you be so cruel?
Thought that I could get through to you


Bridge
But not that I've seen your true colours, I need to move on
You're not the girl I fell in love with
I gotta move on -

Chorus
But now your little masquerade, it's over (yeah)
Gathered all my things now I'm on my way
But now the masquerade- but now your little masquerade is over
I've gathered all my things, I'm on my way

(Ladies let me hear you sing)

But now your little masquerade, it's over (oh yeah)
I've gathered all my things now I'm on my way

(Black Coffee ladies and gentlemen!)

Verse 2
Listen, but at the end of the day I know that you're a beautiful person
It's just that you and I were never meant to be
I know I'll find somebody else who loves me for me
So I'll let it go
I'm tired of the suffering
Don't bother to try and call me coz girl I ain't answering
For me you won't have a chance
It will never be the same as don't bother tryna call coz girl I ain't answering

Chorus
Coz now the masquerade- coz now your little masquerade is over
I've gathered all my things now I'm on my way
Coz now the masquerade - coz now your little masquerade is over
I've gathered all my things, now I'm on my way

(Black Coffee ladies and gentlemen! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!)

If you're tired of masq- listen:
Tired of masquerading, masquerade, masquerading masquer-
Tired of masquerading, masquerading, masquerading, masquer-
Tired of masquerading, masquerading, masquerading, masquer-
Tired of masquerading, masquerading, masquerading, masquer-
I'm tired of masquerading, masquerading, masquerading, masquer-

(Black Coffee ladies and gentlemen!)
