 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

After a couple of bottle of red
Wine the truth finally came out
The words "I don't love you
Anymore" spilled from his mouth
So I looked to the
Waiter for some consolation
But he just poured the coffee
And without hesitation he said, "Ma'am
Is that all you'll be needing tonight?"

Oh the piano kept playing
And nobody noticed the heart in
The corner booth breaking
Cell phones kept ringin'
Glasses were clinkin'
Everyone laughin' and dancin' and singin'
So I painted a smile on my
Face to cover the frown
In that room full of jokers and jesters
I was the clown

Well you can't walk the high wire of
Love and be afraid to fall
And you can't put all of your
Faith in a gypsy's crystal ball
We just do what we do
Take the chances we take
Show me a life without a mistake
Oh, we all learn our lessons
And we all fall down

Oh the piano keeps playing
And nobody notices the heart in
The corner booth breaking
Cell phones keep ringin'
Glasses keep clinkin'
Everyone laughin' and dancin' and singin'
So if you paint a big smile on
Your face to cover the frown
In that room full of jokers and jesters
Sometimes you're the clown

When the circus is over and
The tents are pulled down the truth is
The show must go on for the clown

And oh, the piano kept playing
