When The Curtain Comes Down Lyrics - Grad Rag Doll - Diana Krall

Come on bring up the curtain and let the play being 

We are actors and here's our gig 

Life's a stage where it takes your best to win 

So give it your all folks while you may 

Too soon the shadows they call 

And someday that curtain will fall 

If you are rich , if you are poor 

It's all the same I'm sure 

When the curtain comes down 

Just go along doing your best 

And you'll find peace and rest 

When the curtain comes down 

What if everything goes wrong 

What if sorrow comes along 

Hide your feelings from the throne 

Life can't always be a song 

While you are here if you play fair 

You will be welcomed up there 

When the curtain comes down 

While the heroes are applauded 

The villain is hist 

The heroin's happy 

She's fond of and pissed 

We smile at the ending 

We'll laugh at the clown 

And when it's all over 

The curtain,the curtain comes down
