Curtain Call

[Verse 1]
The facts are vague, but you recount them all
How they improve with age
You with your slingshot and your wrecking ball
Waiting to take the stage

[Verse 2]
I'm not the one who missed the curtain call
But I'm the one who is ashamed
Somebody told me how I stole your show
All for my own acclaim

[Refrain 1]
But I would be happy in the chorus
Down in your dressing room, rehearsing all your lines
And in the finale, you shine
And I would bring you flowers every time

[Verse 3]
We shared a roll of film in black and white
You made the sidewalk spin
But the photographer was out of sight
Too late to capture it

[Refrain 2]
And I would be happy in the chorus
Down in your dressing room, rehearsing all your lines
If I could call you mine
