11.Take A Bow

Lyrics:Babyface/Madonna
Music:Babyface/Madonna

Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Light are low, the curtains down
There's no one here
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

Chorus:

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 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
Wish you well, I cannot stay
You deserve an award for the role that you played
No more masquerade, you're one lonely star

(chorus, repeat)


But how was I to know which way the story'd go
How was I to know you'd break
You'd break my heart

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

(chorus)

Say good-bye
