WHITNEY HOUSTON - I Bow Out lyrics

rate me

Tired of playing this game

And I won't play it no more

And I won't take it no more

Through with being your fool

And I won't do it no more

And I won't, I won't keep up this act

Not for one minute

I'm gonna pull, I'm gonna pull this curtain down

<i>[Chorus:]</i>

This time I won't play this game

I made a vow to make a change

And I bow out

I won't be hanging around, baby

I decline to take the pain

And I resign the masquerade

And I bow out

I won't be staying around, baby

I bow out

Can't go on with the show

You're just a stage I went through

Now you're just fading from view, yeah baby

It's time for a change of scene

Guess I'll be taking my leave

I guess I won't, I won't stay in this play

Not for one minute

I'm gonna make, I'm gonna make my exit now

Oh baby

<i>[Repeat Chorus]</i>

When you're left standing on that stage all alone

Maybe you will realize

You should of learned to treat me right

And when this final act is finally through

Maybe you'll wish you'd been

The kind of man you should have been

Now watch me say goodbye

And walk right out of your life

Oh baby, all right babe

<i>[Repeat Chorus until fade]</i>
