The Actress

Well, you should be an actress, you play your part so well



Your act is so believable that no one else can tell



You say the lines, but I see that you don't really love me



You keep me around to be your faithful clown



Till someone you can love comes along



You'll keep on pretending because the show must go on



Yes, you should be an actress, as lovely as you are



The way you play on emotion, you'll shame the brightest star



You're acting all the time, no, you're not really mine



I'm just another scene in your play acting scheme



No, you don't love me at all



But when you walk away that's when the curtain will fall



But I'll go all the way to the end of the play



I'll be a part of your masquerade



Although, I know it may be the saddest show



In the life of a fool on parade
