There's a light that shines on persephone,
Always a fire in her eyes,
But the last time that I went to her
I could tell that things just weren't right.
I just don't care to see your years go wasting,
There's no longer magic in your eyes.
In your time, you could outshine everybody else around,
But your off-stage ways might be a bore -
You take a bow, then you take a fall.
I just don't care to see your years go wasting.
There's no longer magic in your eyes.
I came to be here in the footlights,
To live with you through every song,
And your face displays a peace fulfilled
I just can't believe the curtain has to fall.
Now I know your years were never wasted,
Tonight I saw the magic in your eyes.
