Curtains open up to see
Spotlight shines 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

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
For our intermission

I was once put out the door.
I couldn't play the part no more
With you.
The chemistry just wasn't there.
I connect like I didn't care
And 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
And 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

We're both 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.

No I don't want it to be over,
But we need a break before
You break my heart
And 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
And I'll still love you
When the lights come up
Baby I'm gonna love you when
The lights come up.
I'm still gonna love you when
The lights come up
Baby I'm gonna love you when
The lights come up.
For our intermission
