After the Party



The party's over
It's time to call it a day
They've burst your pretty balloon
And taken the moon away

It's time to wind up
The masquerade
Just make your mind up
The piper must be paid


The party's over
The candles flicker and dim
You danced and dreamed through the night
It seemed to be right just being with him

Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party's over
It's all over, my friend


The party's over
It's time to call it a day

Now you must wake up, all dreams must end
Take off your makeup, the party's over
It's all over, my friend
It's all over, my friend

The Party's Over 
by Betty Comden, Adolph Green, and Jule Styne
