Chris De Burgh Bal Masque lyrics

So many hearts, so many years
So many people in this vale of tears
But there is one you will meet again
In this endless duet of the dance

Then the carriages come
And the ladies descend with their dreams
With the gloves and the mask
Nothing is here what it seems

One touch is all it takes
Two hearts will meet again
I will know you tonight
When I see you at the Bal Masque

One touch is all it takes
Two hearts will celebrate
In the heat of the night
When I see you at the Bal Masque

Another face from another time
Another place in another life
Behind the mask is an open door
To the someone that you've been before

Then the music begins
And the colors are starting to change
She comes in from the garden

I know it's her right away

One touch is all it takes
Two hearts will meet again
I will know you tonight
When I see you at the Bal Masque

One touch is all it takes
Two hearts will celebrate
In the heat of the night
When I see you at the Bal Masque

At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque
At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque
(At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque)

So many hearts, so many years
(At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque)
Another face from another time
(At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque)
Another face in another life, at the Bal Masque
(At the Bal Masque, at the Bal Masque)

So many hearts, so many years
(At the Bal Masque)
