Jonathan Daniel Potter - The Circus Came to Town Lyrics

You're the one I never quite got over
You're the one my four-leaf clover
The circus came to town in the middle of the night
I thought I might see you there but you were out of sight

The man in flying trapeze looks down at the tops of the trees
But he can't convince me that you ever missed me

You're the one I cannot see
You're the one true mystery
I could recall the time we spent together
I could make those memories last forever

The tightrope walker is a very good talker
But he can't tell me that you ever fell for me

Cause I just won't believe till I see you again
I just won't believe till I feel the touch of your skin
There may be diamonds at the bottom of the sea
But none of them belongs to me

The lion tamer's the original namer
But he grows quiet when I ask him to deny it

That you won't be coming back anytime soon
That you won't be coming back from dark side of the moon
So I fumble in my pockets and I look down at my feet
And I sit here in the audience beside an empty seat
