Say goodbye, my own true lover As we sing a lover's song How it breaks my heart to leave you Now the carnival is gone
High above, the dawn is waking And my tears are falling rain For the carnival is over We may never meet again
Like a drum, my heart was beating And your kiss was sweet as wine But the joys of love are fleeting For Pierrot and Columbine
Now the harbor light is calling This will be our last goodbye Though the carnival is over I will love you till I die
Like a drum, my heart was beating And your kiss was sweet as wine But the joys of love are fleeting For Pierrot and Columbine
Now the harbor light is calling This will be our last goodbye Though the carnival is over I will love you till I die Though the carnival is over I will love you till I die
