"Take a Bow" - Madonna feat. Babyface
I love the smell of my newly-washed hair pressed against my face as I unravel it from being tangled up in a loose bun. I love the first, initial sip of a hot latte or passion fruit iced tea in a tall glass with extra ice. I love opening a box of See's candies and seeing nothing but blueberry truffles inside. I love receiving something personally addressed to me in the mail that isn't junk or a bill. I love looking at old photos and remembering exactly what happened in that photo so much that the feeling I felt at the very moment it was taken comes rushing back. I love curling my toes up inside warm, fuzzy socks. I love eating ice cream on a cold day. I love skimming the aisles filled with beautiful Hallmark cards and finding the right one for the right person. I love the smell of a new journal. I love seeing an empty hamper and a neatly-made bed. I love seeing my breath form in front of me when the seasons change for the holidays. I love watching a candle's lit flame dance around. I love the smell of rice cooking and the sound a kettle makes just before the water comes to a boil. I love seeing my reflection in a puddle of water and distorting it even with the slightest touch. I love looking out of the car window while someone else's driving...or any window for that matter, for the sheer purpose of looking out.
Lyrics:
Take a bow, the night is over
This masquerade is getting older
Light 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)
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 goodbye
Say goodbye (bye bye), say goodbye
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)
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 goodbye
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 goodbye
Say goodbye (bye bye), say goodbye
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 goodbye
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 goodbye
Say goodbye (bye bye), say goodbye
Say goodbye
