Take A Bow lyrics

Written by madonna, babyface (1994)
Performed by madonna

Take a bow
The night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Lights are low
The curtains are down
There`s no one here
(there`s no one here 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`ve guess you`ve always known it`s true
You took my love for granted why oh why
The show is over say good-bye
Say good-bye, say good-bye

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 the whole 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 you don`t know who you are)

Hook

All the world is a stage
And everyone has their part
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
