about

This song is about my time as a musical director for a theatre company. Actually, I tell the story of the song at the beginning of this live recording.

lyrics

I looked into the mirror and practiced all my lines, I got the call back and took the stage
and that's where I met you, so lost and so confused

(chorus)
It's just another strike night, just another set to break down, just another heart to break as the curtain comes down

While pretending to be someone else, we hit our marks, rehearsed our scenes
and that's where I met you, so lost and so confused

(chorus)

We've said the same lines one thousand times
but now the time has come for our show to end

I'll look into the mirror and practice my next lines, but I hope to see you again some other time
