Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Light 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?
[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 [always with you]
I guess you’ve always known it’s true [you know it’s true]
You took my love for granted, why oh why
The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part
Where you’re breaking my heart
[breaking my heart]
Hide behind your smile, all the world loves a clown
[Just make ’em smile the whole world loves a clown]
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played
[role that you played]
No more masquerade, you’re one lonely star
[One lonely star and you don’t know who you are]
I’ve always been in love with you
[always with you]
I guess you’ve always known it’s true
[you know it’s true]
You took my love for granted, why oh why
The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
All the world is a stage
[world is a stage]
And everyone has their part
[has their part]
But how was I to know which way the story’d go
How was I to know you’d break
[You’d break, you’d break, you’d break]
You’d break my heart
I’ve always been in love with you
[I’ve always been in love with you]
Guess you’ve always known
You took my love for granted, why oh why
The show is over, say good-bye
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
Say good-bye
