The Party's Over Songtext
von Chris Difford

When the honeymoon ends
And the pink clouds dissolve
The ice covers 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
The party is over
How much more can we take?

When the carnival ends
And the coloured 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
The party is over
And the pressure just drops

When the champagne is gone
And the curtains are closed
There's a silence between us
Our defences exposed
We have come such a long way
To be coiled like a spring

When the party is over
The party is over
The party is over
We can bounce back again

So let the lights fade
Send the band home
The music plays on
In my heart
Raise up your glass
Here′s to the last
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 faces
Are wilted and torn

When the party is over
The party is over
The party is over
Life just carries on

The party is over
The party is over
The party is over
Life just carries on
Life just carries on
