Performance

Your performance is almost over

When you're through I will take you home

To a place where the water's always fresh and cool

I will lay you down take off your shoes

Yes the curtain it's bound to take your place

There's that sad almost grin upon your face

'Cause you know you've done your best

Now honey leave the rest to me and I'll take care of you

As they watch you fall down to your knees

They don't know that you're praying to please

They don't see the little angel at your back with a star

The only one who knows exactly what you are

You're a thing that makes music they don't understand

And they cheer as you carry out your endless plan

You are weary but you must it's the only thing you trust

As you live you've got to give

Your performance is almost over

When you're through I will take you home

You're a ghost that I can see you're the other part of me

So honey I take care of you
