What's the long face, whats all the crying for

Didn't you expect it when you opened your door

To the man with the long coat and the long list of victims

Everybody watching knows he's the one keeping score

>From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

People watching as the curtain falls down

See the lights do a long slow fade

The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

Everyone watching all along

The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

And the summer's all gone

Still without you, the show goes on

Some say she's alright, some say she'll never learn

Some rush into things, some stand and wait their turn

I've been here all along standing here all this time

But you never noticed, just let the same tired flames burn

>From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

People watching as the curtain falls down

See the lights do a long slow fade

The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

Everyone watching all along

The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

And the summer's all gone

Still without you, the show goes on

Time is passing,slowly passing you by

You better try to find it before it passes you by

As I watch you walking to another cold dawn

And you keep on walking

And they keep on talking

Talking all along

From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

People watching as the curtain falls down

See the lights do a long slow fade

The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

Everyone watching all along

The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

And the summer's all gone

Still without you, the show goes on
