After The Ball Is Over lyrics
by Nat “King” Cole
[Verse 1]
After the ball is over, after the break of morn
After the dancers leaving, after the stars are gone
Many a heart is aching, if you could read them all
Many the hopes that have vanished, after the ball
[Verse 2]
We were so happy waltzing 'round the floor
As shadows deepen, I loved you more
Then came the last dance, you said goodbye
Though I was smiling I wanted to cry
[Verse 1]
After the ball is over, after the break of morn
After the dancers leaving, after the stars are gone
Many a heart is aching, if you could read them all
Many the hopes that have vanished, after the ball
[Outro]
After the ball
After the ball
