The Greatest Performance of My Life(2000 Remaster) - Shirley Bassey

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
