Take a Bow

"Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
The lights are low, the curtains down
There's no one here
[There's no one here, there's no one in the crowd]

Say your lines, but do you feel them
Do you mean what you say when there's no one around
Watching you, watching me
One lonely star
[One lonely star, you don't know who you are]

I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You took my love for granted - why, oh why?
The show is over, say goodbye

Say goodbye, say goodbye

Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part where you're breaking my heart
Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown
[just make 'em smile, all the world loves a clown]
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played
No more masquerade, you're one lonely star
[One lonely star, and you don't know who you are]

All the world is a stage
And everyone has their part
But how was I to know which way the story'd go?
How was I to know you'd break my heart?

I've always been in love with you
I guess you've always known it's true
You took my love for granted - why, oh why?
The show is over, say goodbye..




Say goodbye."
