The show is over, close the storybook

There will be no encore

And all the random hands that I have shook

Will be reaching for the door



I watch their backs as they leave single file

But you stood stubborn, cheering all the while



CHORUS

I know I can be colorful,

I know I can be grey,

I know this loser's living fortunate

And I know you will love me either way.



Most were being good for goodness sake

But you wouldn't pantomime.

You are more beautiful when you awake

Than most are in a lifetime



Through the haze that is my memory

When you stayed for drama though you paid for a comedy



CHORUS



Hold your head as far as you can see

We're living drama but we'll die in a comedy



CHORUS (x2)



And I know you will love me

Yes I know you will love me

Yes I know you will love me either way
