Lyrics for Song: Take A Bow
Lyrics for Album: Bedtime Stories
Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Lights 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
Say good-bye [bye bye], say good-bye
Say good-bye

Take A Bow
Madonna's "Take A Bow" serves as the closing track on her 2019 album *Bedtime Stories*, marking a significant return to her discography after a decade-long hiatus. The recording blends her signature pop sensibilities with a more mature, reflective tone, reflecting on themes of aging and the passage of time. As part of her broader body of work, the song stands alongside other notable releases from the era, such as "I'd Rather Be Your Lover," which also appears on *Bedtime Stories*. The track exemplifies her continued evolution as an artist, maintaining her status as a cultural icon while exploring new musical textures and lyrical depths characteristic of her later career phases. |
