So many hearts, so many years, so many people in
this vale of tears,

But there is one you will meet again, in this
endless duet of the dance,

Then the carriages come and the ladies descend
with their dreams,

With the gloves and the mask, nothing is here
what it seems;

One touch is all it takes, two hearts will meet
again,

I will know you tonight when I see you at the Bal
Masqué,

One touch is all it takes, two hearts will
celebrate,

In the heat of the night, when I see you at the
Bal Masqué;

Another face from another time, another place in
another life,

Behind the mask is an open door to the someone
that you've been before,

Then the music begins, and the colours are
starting to change,

She comes in from the garden, I know that it's
her right away;

One touch is all it takes, two hearts will meet
again,

I will know you tonight when I see you at the Bal
Masqué,

One touch is all it takes, two hearts will
celebrate,

In the heat of the night, when I see you at the
Bal Masqué,

At the Bal Masqué, at the Bal Masqué, at the
Bal Masqué,

At the Bal Masqué, at the Bal Masqué, at the
Bal Masqué,

So many hearts, so many years,

Another face from another time,

Another face in another life, at the Bal Masqué,

So many hearts, so many years.
