Show Time

We had a plan

Now it's almost done

And only silly smiles

Petty crimes

Cruel sighs

Little lies

Between us

And you know like I know

This marriage had its run

Although it's just a pun

‘cause we were never married

We were the perfect dancing partners

That's what the people say and maybe it's a shame

This dance will have to end

Just take another bow

Put on a beaming smile

And it's show time

You're on your own now

It's a scary ride

No one on your side

Standing in the wings

I will be watching you

‘cause it's show time

Here I go again

It’s the same old song

Any fool but me could sing

A different tune

Playing to your crowd

Maybe one more time

But it breaks my heart in two

To hide the truth

And we do

I’m stepping up

Stepping up
