She's from a world of popcorn and candy

Pony rides for a dime, little children laughing

I'm from a place of dissapointments and confusion

But I want her to be mine


I started talking, she kept on walking

(I) seemed to have lost her in the crowd


To her it was a game

Walking through the maze of love

I know I'll never be the same


(Chorus)

Lost my heart on the carousel

To a circus girl who left my heart in pieces

Lost my heart on the carousel

To a circus girl who ran away


I was the clown and she was the dancer

We both knew it would never work, but we took our chances

We fell in love with all the odds against us

And I'd do it all again


I still remember all of the faces

Now all I have is memories


But what I can't recall is if there was a girl at all

Or was it just my imagination


(Chorus)


Two different people

Love for an instant

(They) say that the circus left today

Sometimes I hear the colaipy, and I can hear her calling me


(Chorus Out)
