Lyrics

The flowers are faded now, along with your letters
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 deserve more than empty words and promises

I believed everything you said
And I gave you the best I had, oh

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 comin' to an end
I gave you love, all you gave me was pretend, so now take a bow

And 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 throwin' away the pain
And you should know that your performance
It made me stronger now

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 comin' to an end
I gave you love, all you gave me was pretend, so now take a bow

Well there must've been sleight of hand
'Cause I still can't understand
How I could never see just what a fool believes
Mmh, but the lies, they start to show
Tell me, how does it feel to know right now that I won't be around?
So baby, before I put you out

Take a bow 'cause you've taken everything else (you've taken everything else)
You played the part, and like a star, you played it so well (so well)
Take a bow 'cause this scene is comin' to an end
I gave you love, all you gave me was pretend, so now

Take a bow 'cause you've taken everything else
You played the part (I gave you all my love, I gave you all my love)
Take a bow 'cause this scene is comin' to an end
I gave you love, all you gave me was pretend, so now take a bow

Take a bow
