I Bow Out

作曲：Diane Warren

作词：Diane Warren

Tired of playin' this game

And I won't play it no more

And I won't take it no more

Uh

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, oh

This time I won't play this game

I made a vow to make a change and

I (mm)

Bow out (I won't be hangin' around baby)

I decline to take the pain and

I resign the masquerade and

I (I)

Bow out (I won't be stayin' around baby)

I (I)

Bow (I bow)

Out

Can't go on with the show

You're just a stage I went through

Now you're just fadin' from view, yeah-yeah babe

It's time for a change of scene

Guess I'll be takin' 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

This time I won't play this game (this time I won't)

I made a vow to make a change and (I made a vow)

I (I)

Bow out (I won't be hangin' around baby)

I decline to take the pain (I decline)

I resign the masquerade and (oh yeah)

I bow out (I won't be stayin' around baby)

I (oh)

Bow (ooh)

Out (out!)

When you're left standin' on that stage all alone

Maybe you will realize

You should've learned to treat me right

And when this final act is finally through

Maybe you'll have wished you'd been

The kind of man you should have been

Now watch me say goodbye

And walk right out of your life

Ooh baby

Alright baby

This time I won't play this game (this time)

I made a vow to make a change and (this time I made up my mind)

I (I)

Bow (I bow)

Out (I won't be hangin' around baby)

I decline to take the pain and (I decline boy)

I resign the masquerade and (no more, said I)

I bow (gonna bow out)

Out (I won't be stayin' around baby)

This time I won't play this game

I made a vow to make a change and

I (said I)

Bow (gotta)

Out (I gotta bow out)

(do you believe me?) I decline to take the pain and

(I say, can a you here me?) I resign the masquerade and

(do you here me baby?) I bow (mm)

Out (I won't be stayin' around baby)

This time I won't play this game

I made a vow to make a change and

I (I)

Bow (bow)

Out (ooh, baby, I bow out!)

I decline to take the pain and (I said I bow out!)

I resign the masquerade and

I bow out
