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 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...
[...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...[bye 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...]
Wish you well, I cannot stay.
You deserve an award for the role that you played...
...No more masquerade, you're...
...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...? You'd break my heart...
