Does anybody have the words to the verses of that old song - I remember the chorus but darned if I can recall the rest - Probably been 30 years since I sang it!!

I know a few of them. I haven't done it for a long time either. Maybe you can finish them.
Turn out the lights, the partys over,
They say that all good things must end,
Turn out the lights, the partys over,
And tomorrow starts the same old thing again.

What a crazy, crazy party,people laughing, people dancing.
Look at you you're having fun
Look at me I'm almost cryin'????????
?????But for me, misery, the partys over.

Once I had a love undying, couldn't keep it, wasn't trying,
Life for me was just one party, then another
I had to have my party wine,???????????????
Then one day, she said sweetheart, the partys over.

You're real close - I think I had the last verse - I think the one line is (I broke her heart so many times, had to have my party wine) - It's still the other verse I Can't quite get together - We'll keep tryin' Thanx.......Ron

What a crazy,crazy party.
Never seen so many people
Laughin', dancin'----look at you,

But look at me,I'm almost cryin'-
But that don't keep her love from dyin'
Misery,'cause for me
The party's over.
