Masquerade from Haemophiliac by Laine Halle

Yearning, waiting
Believe me, I’m not desperate
Softness, touch
It’s just what I want

Sequins glisten, dresses twirl in slow motion
Your eyes caught onto mine
Hands trace the curves, I reach the mask, but it slips through
I should’ve known

It’s a masquerade
Come on, baby, won’t you dance with me
Let me see your face
Please don’t shy away, I should have know
It’s a masquerade

We say no words, we make no sound
Your lips are all over mine
A purple haze, your studded gaze
Are you a figment of my mind?

Sequins glisten, dresses twirl in slow motion
Your eyes hold onto mine
Hands trace the curves, I reach the mask, but it slips through
I should’ve known

It’s a masquerade
Come on, baby, won’t you dance with me
Let me see your face
Please don’t shy away, I should have know
It’s a masquerade

Sequins glisten, dresses twirl in slow motion
Your hair reflects the light
Smoke starts to curl, I reach out, but then you slip through
After all

It’s a masquerade
Come on baby, won’t you stay with me
Let me see your face
Please don’t shy away, I should’ve known
It’s a masquerade
