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 is about 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 who 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 | |
Now honey I will take care of you | |
‘Cause you know you’ve done your best | |
Now honey leave the rest to me and I’ll take care of you |
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 is about 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 who 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 | |
Now honey I will take care of you | |
' Cause you know you' ve done your best | |
Now honey leave the rest to me and I' ll take care of you |
