Take A Bow

The flowers are faded now, along with your letters

They will never see the light of day, cause I'll never take them out

There's no turning back, it's for the better

Baby I deserved more then empty words and promises

I believed every thing you said, and I gave you the best I had



So take a bow

Cause you've taken everything else

You played the part and

Like a star you played it so well (played it so well)

Take a bow

Cause this scene is coming to an end

I gave you love

All you gave me was pretend

So now

Take a bow



The future's about to change, before you know it,

The curtain closes, take a look around,

There's no one in the crowd, I'm throwing away the pain,

And you should know that your performance made me stronger now



So take a bow

Cause you've taken everything else (everything else)

You played the part and

Like a star you played it so well (played it so well) (oh oh oh)

So take a bow (take a bow)

Cause this scene is coming to an end

I gave you love

All you gave me was pretend (so now)

So now

Take a bow



Well it must have been slight of hand, 'cause I still can't understand

Why I could never see, just what a fool believes

But the lies they start to show, tell me how does it feel to know, right now

That I wont be around, so baby before I put you out



So take a bow (oh oh oh)

Cause you've taken everything else (you've taken everything else)

You played the part and

Like a star you played it so well (played it so well, so well)

Take a bow (oh)

Cause this scene is coming to an end (yeah)

I gave you love

All you gave me was pretend (so now)

So now

Take a bow



Take a bow (oh oh ooh)

Cause you've taken everything else (yeah ah yeah)

You played the part and (I gave you one more chance)

Like a star you played it so well (played it so well) (I gave you all my love)

Take a bow

Cause this scene is coming to an end (the end)

I gave you love

All you gave me was pretend (ooh ooh ooh)

So now (oh oh yeah)

Take a bow
