Let The Curtain Come Down 1940

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 19 Sep 2003

All the world's a stage they say,
We all have our parts to play,
I've played mine but where am I?
Do I laugh or cry?

Let the curtain come down;
Why go on pretending?
Let the curtain come down
You've acted your part.
You can laugh with the crowd
For the show is ending
Let the curtain come down
On a broken heart.
We both played the 'lovers'
Romeo and Juliet
Kisses you don't remember,
I can't forget.
Now it's all over town
that my tears are falling,
I was only the clown
Let the curtain come down.

Let the curtain come down;
Why go on pretending?
Let the curtain come down
You've acted your part.
You can laugh with the crowd
For the show is ending
Let the curtain come down
On a broken heart.
We both played the 'lovers'
Romeo and Juliet
Kisses you don't remember,
I can't forget.
Now it's all over town
that my tears are falling,
I was only the clown
Let the curtain come down.
