When They Bring Down the Curtain
When they BRING DOWN THE CURTAINEverybody's gonna think it's overIn the back of my mind I knowIt's only the start of the showWhen they BRING DOWN THE CURTAINThat's when my troubles beginWhen it gets to you, girl,That's the hardest part to win.Sitting here in my room backstageWith only my thoughts to keep me companyRead the script again from an empty pageStill I see your face in front of meBut I can't let this feeling take overI've got to go out and play my partNo one else realisesI'm doing it all with an aching heart tonightThe houselights dim and the show has begunAll the lines seem to flow so easilyPeople laugh but I can't join the funAll my words just echo back at meStill I go through the motionsTell a joke, pull a funny faceNo one else has a notionI've lost someting that I can't replace tonightSongtexteWhen they BRING DOWN THE CURTAINEverybody's gonna think it's overIn the back of my mind I knowIt's only the start of the showWhen they BRING DOWN THE CURTAINThat's when my troubles beginWhen it gets to you, girl,That's the hardest part to win.
