歌曲名 Nellie Takes Her Bow (2001 Remaster)

歌手名 Electric Light Orchestra

作曲：Jeff Lynne

Who thanked the Lord for the clothes

That she wore and mended

Nellie with the big old fashioned eyes

Who won the heart of a crowd tore apart took a bow

Nellie there's a different world backstage

I see the flood lights burning

I hear the band play on

Now Nellie takes her bow

She said she really could not stay

She had a brand new play to play

And so she paints her face and smiles

And she'll be someone else in a while

I see the flood lights burning

I hear the band play on

Now Nellie takes her bow

Just a lonely girl

Who could not face a broken world

And so she acts out all her dreams

And wishes that's how it had been

But when the audience is near

It seems as though she doesn't even care

Nellie just sent me a line

To tell me she was doing fine

She got the lead and on Broadway

And now they're digging her today

And as she turns the final page

Living someone's life upon the stage

I see the flood lights burning

I hear the band play on

Now Nellie takes her bow
