Текст песни Take a Bow, Madonna

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
