Chris Flew - Circus Song

And crowds so loud are soon forgotten

They scream and shout into the night

And hurl about

And how does it feel with big-top down?

Deflated clown retreats forgotten

A hazy mess of yellow, red and muddy brown

Maybe tonight I'll jump through this ring of fire

Hoping to land right by your side

Or walk across tightrope wire in denial

See you on the other side

Abigail's holding herself to a dream

Of tightrope wire artists suspended on beams

Lions in cages and ten dancing girls

Covered in sequins, drowning in their own curls

Ringmaster, please, let me off of this ride

'Cause I'm starting to think that there's no place to hide

So you climb down the cannon and wait for the spark

That'll send you off shooting, straight into the dark

She comes down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down, down

Maybe tonight I'll jump through this ring of fire

Hoping to land right by your side

Or walk across tightrope wire in denial

See you on the other side

Maybe one day we'll take this ride

Holding each others hands, we're fine

We'll walk across this crazy line

One hundred feet up in the sky
