Curtains open up the scene
Spotlights shine on you and me tonight
Pretending for the crowd below,
We put on a real good show, but it's a lie
We can't help but cause a fight,
It's the same old drama every night
I walk off stage cause this whole play
Is more than I can take
Oh, I don't want it to be over
But we need a break before you break my heart
Oh, We can't live this scene forever
Right now you and me are better, better off apart
But I'll still love you when the lights come up
For our intermission
I was once put out the door
I couldn't play that part no more, with you
The chemistry just wasn't there
I couldn't act like I didn't care, when I do, I do
We can't help but cause a fight,
It's the same old drama every night
I walk off stage cause this whole play
Is more than I can take
No, I don't want it to be over
But we need a break before you break my heart
Oh, we can't live this scene forever
Right now you and me are better, better off apart
But I'll still love you when the lights come up
Yeah, I'll still love you when the lights come up
(When the lights come up)
We're like actors in a play living out our love on stage
But you keep saying the same old lines to me, yeah
So where we fell off track
But I know love will lead us back.
Oh, I don't want it to be over,
But we need a break before you break my heart
Oh, we can't live this scene forever
Right now you and me are better, better off apart
And I'll still love you when the lights come up
Yeah, I'll still love you when the lights come up, oh oh oh
Baby I'm gonna love you when the lights come up
I'll still gonna love you when the lights come up
Baby I'm gonna love you when the lights come up.
For our intermission
