We thought we were the greatest show on earth
Two kids running 'round kicking up dirt
Fallin', flyin', big top lovin' in a little old town
When you're high wired walking
Don't you dare look down
And tease the liend

You toss love around like a juggling act
You put you heart in a can
And then you didn't look back

Just when I thought I had hit it one day
Just like that heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus

You talked me into a ticket for two
Paid with my heart for a great stand view
But the star on traction
Was smoke and magic

You toss love around like a juggling act
You put you heart in a can
And then you didn't look back

Just when I thought I had hit it one day
Just like that heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus

You toss love around like a juggling act
You put you heart in a can
And then you didn't look back

Just when I thought I had hit it one day
Just like that heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus
