Don't Cry Out Loud / This Masquerade - Shirley Bassey (1982 TV Special) video free download

ABOUT the LP, All By Myself:

All by Myself is a 1982 album by Shirley Bassey. Having ended her contract with United Artists around 1980 (around the time that label was sold to Bassey's former home EMI), Bassey took a break from recording, and then began releasing albums on various labels. All by Myself was the first of these, issued on the Applause label. 1982 was the dawn of the CD era, and this was her first-ever album to be issued on CD. The album was also issued on LP and cassette. In the UK and some other countries, the album was titled Love Songs, with identical cover art, and under that name it charted for five weeks on the UK albums chart, on the K-tel label, peaking at #48. The original CD has since become scarce, though the songs have appeared on many compilations.

LYRICS - We Don't Cry Out Loud:

Baby cried the day the circus came to town

'cause she didn't want parades just passing by her

So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown

While she danced without a net upon the wire

I know a lot about her 'cause, you see

Baby is an awful lot like me

Don't cry out loud

Just keep it inside

And learn how to hide your feelings

Fly high and proud

And if you should fall

Remember you almost had it all

Baby saw that when they pulled the big top down

They left behind her dreams among the litter

The different kind of love she thought she'd found

There was nothing left but sawdust and some glitter

But baby can't be broken 'cause you see

She had the finest teacher - that was me

Don't cry out loud

Just keep it inside

And learn how to hide your feelings

Fly high and proud

And if you should fall

Remember you almost had it all

Don't cry out loud

Just keep it inside

And learn how to hide your feeling

Fly high and proud

And if you should fall

Remember you almost made it

Don't cry out loud

Just keep it inside

And learn how to hide your feelings

Fly high and proud

And if you should fall

Remember you almost had it all

LYRICS - This Masquerade:

Are we really happy with this lonely game we play

Looking for words to say

Searching but not finding, understanding anyway

We're lost in a masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away

From being close together from the start

We tried to talk it over, but

the words got in the way

We're lost inside this lonely game we play

Thoughts of leaving disappear

every time I see your eyes

No matter how hard I try

To understand the reasons why we carry on this way

We're lost in a masquerade

No matter how hard I try

To understand the reasons why we carry on this way

We're lost in a masquerade

We're lost in a masquerade

We're lost in a masquerade

We're lost in a masquerade
