Take a bow

Take a bow, the night is over, this masquerade is getting older
Light are low, the curtains down There's no one here
Say your lines but do you feel them
Do you mean what you say when there's no one around
Watching you, watching me, one lonely star

I've always been in love with you, I guess you've always known it's true
You took my love for granted, why oh why? The show is over, say good-bye

Make them laugh, it comes so easy
When you get to the part where you're breaking my heart
Hide behind your smile, all the 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

All the world is a stage and everyone has their part

But how was I to know which way the story'd go?

How was I to know you'd break my heart.

This has always been one of my favorite songs by Madonna and little did I suspect that one day this song would be a reflection of my life…yup, it does. To most people, my life seemed closest to a perfect world but what they see most of the time is a stage of a “perfect world” by actors that knows their line well…too well sometimes it’s scary because there comes a point that you forget the reality of life. When the lights are off and the curtains are down, do you really mean what you say and feel when there’s no one around? I guess for me the answers have always been there but it’s easier to just enjoy the moments in the limelight on the stage until I have the courage to really admit the realities of my actual life…u took my love for granted, the show is over so say goodbye love L
