The Clown



You love the way it makes me feel when I can?????™t catch my breath

Like walkin?????™ on a high wire, Lord, it scares me half to death

You're always high above me and I?????™m always fallin?????™ down

Our love?????™s just a circus baby, and I?????™m just the clown



And I?????™ll do tricks for you, just like you want me to

I?????™ll do anything it takes just to hang around

I?????™ll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown

Cause our loves a circus and I?????™m just the clown



Everyone?????™s in love with you, but they just look at me and laugh

And I?????™ll bet when they see me cry, they think it?????™s just an act

Ah, but someday when it?????™s over and we bring the big top down

You can say it was one big circus and I was just the clown



And I?????™ll do tricks for you, just like you want me to

I?????™ll do anything it takes just to hang around

I?????™ll paint a smile for you to cover up my frown

Cause you love the circus, but you don?????™t love the clown
