Circus

Craig Cardiff

How did you sneak in
I thought all the doors had been closed
Now that you're here
I don't think I can stand to see you go
And I am only I am only I am only I
And you are only you
We are only we for a little while
With the night as our blanket
And ghosts in the yard
You lean in close and say
"I think we can go far."
Me, I'm always drowning
The water and the whiskey and the wine
And look how we've managed
To make a circus of us this time
And you say "I am only I am only I am only I
And you are only you
And we are only we for a little while"
With the night as our blanket
And ghosts in the yard
You lean in close and say
"I think we can go far"
