Clowns Exit Laughing - Jimmy Webb

We’ve done our number, what else is there to say?

I knew the rules of play

I knew I’d have to pay

If I fell in love

Clowns exit laughing

So close up the curtains

Though I am hurtin'

You won’t see me cry

Clowns exit laughing

And though we don’t show it

Both of us know it

We’re saying goodbye

«See you tomorrow,» we both know that’s not true

You’ve found somebody new

Just like you said you’d do

When starting again

Clowns exit laughing

So close up the curtains

Though I am hurtin'

You won’t see me cry

Clowns exit laughing

And though we don’t show it

Both of us know it

We’re saying goodbye
