Love Is A Circus - By Paul McCann

I feel like a clown with my feet off the ground

and my head in the clouds over you .

Well I don’t want to dwell on this for too long

But where am I going with you .

Just like a man on the high wire up there

I hope I don’t fall down below ,

But it feels like I’m half way to going nowhere

and is it better to stay or to go .

Up down and round and round

I’m all over the place here and there

Shot from a cannon straight into your heart .

Like a cannonball floating on air .

No one can say, it just happens to be ,

and there’s only one reason I’ve found

Everyone’s got an act or a part

When love is the circus in town .

Love is a circus and I can’t tame the lions

that roar in the night in a cage .

They’re locked up tight underneath the stars

Shinning bright over us in a circus of the heart .

Love is a circus ,

Sometimes I feel like a funny clown

But as soon as I start thinking

it feels like I’ve come home

then the big top comes tumbling down .

Two tickets ready to go

But its over before I begin ,

Looking around at this moment in time

It’s a crazy old place that I’m in .

Love is a circus , I can’t tame the lions

that roar in the night in a cage .

They’re locked up tight underneath the stars

Shinning bright over us in a circus of the heart .
