Performance Songtext
von Aaron Neville & Allen Toussaint
Performance Songtext
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, it can, guess it′s bound to take your place
Has that sad, almost crying look on your face
'Cause you knew you've done your best
Now, honey leave the rest to me and I′ll take care of you
As I watch you fall down to your knees
They don′t know that you're praying to please
They don′t see the little angel that you've backed with a star
The only one who knows exactly who you are
[Unverified] they don′t understand
And they cheer as you carry on your endless plan
You are weary but you must, it's the only thing you trust
As you live, you got to give
Your performance is almost over
When you′re through I will take you home
Where it goes to I can see that, help your needs
I'll take care of you
'Cause you′ve done your best
Now, honey leave the rest to me
And I′ll take care of you
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, it can, guess it′s bound to take your place
Has that sad, almost crying look on your face
'Cause you knew you've done your best
Now, honey leave the rest to me and I′ll take care of you
As I watch you fall down to your knees
They don′t know that you're praying to please
They don′t see the little angel that you've backed with a star
The only one who knows exactly who you are
[Unverified] they don′t understand
And they cheer as you carry on your endless plan
You are weary but you must, it's the only thing you trust
As you live, you got to give
Your performance is almost over
When you′re through I will take you home
Where it goes to I can see that, help your needs
I'll take care of you
'Cause you′ve done your best
Now, honey leave the rest to me
And I′ll take care of you
