Standard (EADGBE)

 There's a light that shines on persephone,

Always a fire in her eyes,

 And the last time that I went to her

 I could tell things 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, you take a fall.

 I just don't care to see your years go wasting,

 There's no longer magic in your eyes

Middle solo

 I came to be here in the footlights,

 To live with you through every song,

 And your face displays a peaceful field.

 I can't believe the curtain has to fall.

Now I know your years were never wasted,

Tonight I saw the magic in your eyes.

forever.........
