lyrics

When the honeymoon ends
And the pink clouds dissolve
The ice covers over over the love and the soul
Where can we find refuge, where can we find escape
When the party is over, the party is over
When the party is over, how much more can we take

When the carnival ends
And the colored lights fade
There's a sense of not knowing if we should be disgraced
Like a wave on the ocean, we can break on the rocks
When the party is over, the party is over
When the party is over and the pressure just drops

When the champagne is gone
And the curtains are closed
There's silence between us, defenses exposed
We've come such a long way to be coiled like a spring
When the party is over, the party is over
When the party is over, we can bounce back again

So let the lights fade and send the band home
The music plays on in my heart
Raise up your glass, here's to the laughs
Play on, play on

When the dancing is done
Do you clear up or sleep
Where confetti has fallen on the floor round your feet
The flowers and favors are wilted and torn
When the party is over, the party is over
When the party is over life just carries on
When the party is over, the party is over
When the party is over life just carries on
