Oh,
The flowers are faded now
Along with your letters
And they will never see the light of day
'Cause I'll never take them out
And there's no turning back
It's for the better
Baby I deserved more than empty words
And promises
I believed everything you said
And I give you the best I have
Oh.
[Chorus]
So take a bow.
'Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part, and like a star you played it so well
Take a bow
'Cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love, all you give 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, it made me stronger now
[Chorus]
Well it must have been slight of hand
'Cause I still can't understand
How I could never see
Just what a fool believed
Mmm
But the lies they start to show
Tell me how it feels to know
Right now that I won't be around
So baby before I put you out
[Chorus: x2]
Mmm, take a bow
