In this show, jugglers with flames are walking tight ropes

While my thoughts get tossed up in the air and scattered round

I know, there's nothing left between me and the ground now

If you go, leaving me alone to juggle fire

Now I'm too tired, to keep these flames alive

As the circus girl, fell off the wire.

This time, we'll pack up all our things and hit the road dear

I'll sing, you can balance baby in one hand

We'll drive and wake up where the clouds are far behind us

Live life, like gypsies traveling in caravan

I understand, lions that jump through fire

But this circus girl, fell off the wire.

In the ring below, the master just tamed the liar

As the circus girl, fell off the wire...
