Curtain Call
Julie & Bryan Rice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'll believe in every word you say
Soon you'll be gone, you got me hanging on
Don't wanna say, wanna say, say goodbye
I don't want you to go
please just stay, stay right here
Time is running out for us now
Whenever the sky is breaking
Your heart is ready for the taking
Remember what I tell you now
Remember how we're feeling right this moment
Nothing in this world can stop me
I'm with you in every heartbeat
Remember we had it all
Before the curtain call
Before the curtain call
It's been so long since you've been here with me
The fact we're apart is killing me
I'll count the minutes till you're at the door
Tick tock, tick tock in my head
I can't wait to see you again
- Meant to be
Such a big mistake
Want you back here with me
Whenever the sky is breaking
Your heart is ready for the taking
Remember what I tell you now
Remember how we're feeling right this moment
Nothing in this world can stop me
I'm with you in every heartbeat
Remember we had it all
Before the curtain call
If the sky should fall
would you be there for me?
At the curtain call
will you think of me?
Up against the wall
I know we're meant to be
At the curtain call
you can count on me
If the sky should fall
would you be there for me?
At the curtain call
will you think of me?
Will you think of me?
Whenever the sky is breaking
Your heart is ready for the taking
Remember what I tell you now
Remember how we're feeling right this moment
Nothing in this world can stop me
I'm with you in every heartbeat
Remember we had it all
Before the curtain call
Before the curtain call

Try to convince me we will be OK
Please reassure me that everything will be fine
And I'll believe in every word you say
I will trust and have faith in you
Soon you'll be gone, you got me hanging on
You will leave soon, but I am holding on to the hope that you will come back to me

Before it ends
It's been so long since you've been here with me
It has been a while since we have spent time together
The fact we're apart is killing me
Being apart is hurting me deeply
I'll count the minutes till you're at the door
I am eagerly waiting for your return
Tick tock, tick tock in my head
I am counting down the time in my head
If the sky should fall
If things go terribly wrong
would you be there for me?
Will you stand by me?
At the curtain call
When it all ends
will you think of me?
Will I still be on your mind?
Up against the wall
When chips are down
I know we're meant to be
I believe we are destined to be together
you can count on me
You can rely on me
Will you think of me?
Will you have me in your thoughts?
