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 ]
Chorus:
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 ]
( chorus, repeat )
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
( chorus )
Say good-bye [ bye bye ], say good-bye
Say good-bye
