Circus Leaving Town From - My Honky Tonk History Before you draw the final curtain Before the big top crashes down Before you pack away my trunk case I'd like to take a final bow One last chance to hear the laughter And see your face there in the crowd One last moment in the spotlight One last chance to be your clown I guess you're tired of walkin' tight ropes Of settin' up and tearin' down You want a place to call forever And rest your feet on solid ground Somewhere you've lost that sense of wonder But that's still the place I'm bound I'm a storm in search of thunder I'm just a circus leavin' town Once we could fill a room with laughter And fill each other's hearts with joy Through each trial and disaster Still we cling to our choice To take a path so unforgiving A road that waits for no one You know we chose to keep on living Oh, tell me where did we go wrong I guess you're tired of walkin' tight ropes Of settin' up and tearin' down You want a place to call forever And rest your feet on solid ground Don't try to break this spell I'm under Or stop these wheels from spinnin' round I'm a storm in search of thunder Yes I'm a circus leavin' town Some day you'll wake up and wonder And your heart will start to pound And you'll long for the thunder And the kisses of a clown Umm hmm...hmm... |
