This note's to say that I'll be here
If you come home to be with me, again
One more time
You'd said before that you would stay
But then I'd find you'd gone away, again
Curtain time, one more time.

Chorus:
For when you go, without a word
You leave my song of love unheard
And I always have to see you, one more time
I'll take a chance on you, one more time.

I tell my self be careful now
She's usin' those same words of love, again
One more time
And yet she leaves an open door
And she could leave you like before, again
Curtain time, one more time.

Chorus:

And when I heard your voice again
The memories came flooding in, my mind
One more time
It seems to me, each time you go
I'm drowning in an undertow, again
Curtain time, one more time.

Bridge:
You say we'll make it, if we try
You say it's not a lullaby
And you won't ring that curtain down again.
And I will choose, though I may lose, to try you
one more time
For I must see that curtain rise, once more.

Chorus:
