shirley bassey – the greatest performance of my life lyrics
tonight, i gave the greatest performance of my life
i never lost control, i played the part so well
that not a single soul could tell that i was lying
and so, though it was hard to face our friends, i gave a party
i know i meant to show them all, i’ve gotten over you
and though i saw the unbelieving looks on all their faces
i had to try to make them think that it was true
so i, who had me dance, dance through the night, just like the gypsy
and i who seldom drink, drank like a fish till i was high, and i
who hadn’t laughed since god knows when, out laughed pagliacci
till they believed it more than even i
tonight, i gave the greatest performance of my life
i never lost control, i played the part so well
that not a single soul could tell that i was lying
but love, if you had been behind the curtain, when it fell
when all the lights were out and i was all alone
you would have seen this actress crying
yes, tonight, i gave the greatest performance of my life
i never lost control, i played the part so well
that not a single soul could tell that i was lying
but love, if you had been behind the curtain, when it fell
when all the lights were out and i was all alone
you would have seen this actress crying
