Oh the piano kept playing And nobody noticed the heart in the corner booth breaking Cell phones kept ringin', glasses were clinkin' Everyone laughin' and dancin' and singin' So I painted a smile on my face to cover the frown In that room full of jokers and jesters, I was the clown Well you can't walk the high wire of love and be afraid to fall And you can't put all of your faith in a gypsy's crystal ball We just do what we do, take the chances we take Show me a life without a mistake Oh, we all learn our lessons and we all fall down Oh the piano keeps playing And nobody notices the heart in the corner booth breaking Cell phones keep ringin', glasses keep clinkin' Everyone laughin' and dancin' and singin' So if you paint a big smile on your face to cover the frown In that room full of jokers and jesters, sometimes you're the clown When the circus is over and the tents are pulled down The truth is, the show must go on for the clown And oh, the piano kept playing From Letras Mania
