| I wonder if you're lonesome tonight. You know, someone said the world's a stage. | Fate had me playing in love | with you as my sweetheart. Act one was when we met. | I loved you at first glance. You read your lines so cleverly, you never missed a cue. Then came act two. Using the change you acted strange, | and why I'll never know. | Honey, you lied when you said you loved me, | and I had no cause to doubt you. | But I'd rather go on hearing your lies | than to go on live without you. | Now the stage is bare, and I'm standing there | with emptiness all around. | And if you won't come back to me then they can | bring the curtain down. | |
