	When they bring down the curtain
	Everybody's gonna think it's over
	In the back of my mind I know
	It's only the start of the show
	When they bring down the curtain
	That's when my troubles begin
	When it gets to you, girl,
	That's the hardest part to win.
	Sitting here in my room backstage
	With only my thoughts to keep me company
	Read the script again from an empty page
	Still I see your face in front of me
	But I can't let this feeling take over
	I've got to go out and play my part
	No one else realises
	I'm doing it all with an aching heart tonight
	The houselights dim and the show has begun
	All the lines seem to flow so easily
	People laugh but I can't join the fun
	All my words just echo back at me
	Still I go through the motions
	Tell a joke, pull a funny face
	No one else has a notion
	I've lost someting that I can't replace tonight
	When they bring down the curtain
	Everybody's gonna think it's over
	In the back of my mind I know
	It's only the start of the show
	When they bring down the curtain
	That's when my troubles begin
	When it gets to you, girl,
	That's the hardest part to win.
