Big Top Love
The circus just left town today and I think we should've gone
We'd be brave and full of fear, our mamas would burst into tears
I woke up late and missed our ride to the twinkle in your eyes
It's a shame we didn't know, the fame, the bright lights of the show
You could've been a wondrous star, yeah, an aerial delight
A pleasant smile on a made up face, a portrait of amazing Grace
The crowd would ooooh and aaaah and stare and quiet for your display
And you would be so high that you could meet God in the sky
Every night you'd drown inside your big top love
You would have the fortune that you desire
I'd be over in the corner with my Ouija board
A paralytic grin, caught in my psychic tailspin
The pulp of my eyes screams behind my slight simp sweetheart smile
That's where I belong trying to cry you my song
The crowd would whimper, gasp and flinch and scream at my first sight
And I would seem so odd that I don't deserve to meet their God
Every night I'd drown inside my big top love
I would have the fortune that I desire
We could still be miles away in our traveling spectacle
I could never hide my own terrible pride
Then again I bet we'd find the drama of ourselves
I'd appreciate your art as I wrung out your sweet heart
We could dance and sing and make love and find new ways to give
And we would be so free that their God would let us be
Every night we'd drown inside our big top love
We would have the fortune that I desire
The circus just left town today and I think we should've gone
We'd be brave and full of fear, our mamas would burst into tears
I woke up late and missed our ride to the twinkle in your eyes
It's a shame we didn't know, the fame, the bright lights of the show
You could've been a wondrous star, yeah, an aerial delight
A pleasant smile on a made up face, a portrait of amazing Grace
The crowd would ooooh and aaaah and stare and quiet for your display
And you would be so high that you could meet God in the sky
Every night you'd drown inside your big top love
You would have the fortune that you desire
I'd be over in the corner with my Ouija board
A paralytic grin, caught in my psychic tailspin
The pulp of my eyes screams behind my slight simp sweetheart smile
That's where I belong trying to cry you my song
The crowd would whimper, gasp and flinch and scream at my first sight
And I would seem so odd that I don't deserve to meet their God
Every night I'd drown inside my big top love
I would have the fortune that I desire
We could still be miles away in our traveling spectacle
I could never hide my own terrible pride
Then again I bet we'd find the drama of ourselves
I'd appreciate your art as I wrung out your sweet heart
We could dance and sing and make love and find new ways to give
And we would be so free that their God would let us be
Every night we'd drown inside our big top love
We would have the fortune that I desire
The circus just left town today and I think we should've gone
