The Circus Songtext
von Suzan Köcher

I′m just a poor girl from the wrong side of town
I'm waiting for love to come around
And when the lights shine bright over from the fair
I dress my best and travel there
But every year it′s the same
When they're gone they forget my name
The circus has just left the town
And I'm still here, stranded blue and down
I′ve no idea where they will lead
I′m still here
Lost in worries and fears
I get my share from the jugglers and clowns
I cheer them up, they lay me down
And when the night comes I will drown myself in wine
Trying to forget my name and cry
But every year it's the same


When they′re gone I am lost in shame
The circus has just left the town
And I'm still here, stranded blue and down
I′ve no idea where they will lead
I'm still here
Lost in worries and fears
Sorrow and tears
No one stays to show me the way out of here
I guess that′s just how my story goes
But every year it's the same
When they're gone they forget my name
The circus has just left the town
And I′m still here, stranded blue and down
I′ve no idea where they will lead
I'm still here
Lost in worries and fears
