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

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
