lyrics
Jacosa
The curtains rise
The spotlight shines
She takes the stage
All eyes are on her
The magic she weaves
Nonbelievers believe
This is a girl you'll remember...
With the swelling of music
The show must begin
Silks wrapped around her like a second skin
She'll twist and she'll soar
See her smile as she flies
Showing the world you can reach for the skies!
The curtains rise
The spotlight shines
She takes the stage
Light as a feather
With her laugh and coy grin
Captivation begins
This is a girl you'll remember...
Like a seer her eyes cast you in a spell
But a spell that you don't want broken
Takes her final bow
And waves her farewell
The wonder she leaves is unspoken!
Now the curtains have closed
The spotlight's exposed
The stage is all bare
No spark; No ember
And now that she's gone...
She'd want the show to go on
Just close your eyes...
... and remember.

Awesome track! I also love the "tribute" at the end to that old D&D audio, genius!
