Intermission - Bobby Rush

Curtains open up the scene, spotlights shine on you and me, tonight.

Pretending for the crowd below, we put on a real good show, but it’s a lie.

We can’t help but cause a fight, it’s the same old drama every night.

I walk offstage cause this whole play is more than I can take.

Woah, I don’t want it to be over, but we need a break before you break my heart.

Oh, we can’t live this scene forever, right now you and me are better,

better off apart.

But I’ll still love you when the lights come up for our intermission.

I was one foot out the door, I couldn’t play that part no more.

The chemistry just wasn’t there, I couldn’t act like I didn’t care, when I do,

I do.

We can’t help but cause a fight, it’s the same old drama every night.

I walk offstage cause this whole play is more than I can take.

Woah, I don’t want it to be over, but we need a break before you break my heart.

Oh, we can’t live this scene forever, right now you and me are better,

better off apart.

But I’ll still love you when the lights come up, yeah, I’ll still love you when

the lights come up.

We’re like actors in a play, living out our love on stage.

You’re just saying the same old lines to me, yeah.

Somewhere we fell off track, but I know love will lead us back.

Woah, I don’t want it to be over, but we need a break before you break my heart.

Oh, we can’t live this scene forever, right now you and me are better,

better off apart.

But I’ll still love you when the lights come off, I’ll still love you when the

lights come up.

Woah

(Baby, I’m gonna love you when the lights come up.) Woah

(I'm still gonna love you when the lights come up.) Woah

(Baby, I’m gonna love you when the lights come up.) Yeah, yeah, yeah
