(Eric Clapton)
|
Little man with his eyes on fire
|
And his smile so bright.
|
In his hands are the toys you gave
|
To fill his heart with delight.
|
|
And in the ring stands a circus clown
|
Holding up a knife.
|
What you see and what you will hear
|
Will last you for the rest of your life.
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
And it's sad, so sad,
|
There ain't no easy way round.
|
And it's sad, so sad,
|
All you friends gather round
|
'Cause the circus left town.
|
|
Little man with his heart so pure
|
And his love so fine.
|
Stick with me and I'll ride with you
|
Till the end of the line.
|
|
Hold my hand and I'll walk with you
|
Through the darkest night.
|
And when I smile I'll be thinking of you
|
And every little thing will be all right.
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
|
The circus left town, left town.
|
The circus left town, left town.
