We thought we were the best show on earth Two kids running 'round kicking up dirt Falling, flying Big top love in a little old town When you're high wire walking don't you dare look down And tease the lions Ooh, oh, oh, you toss love around like a juggling act Ooh, oh, oh, you put your heart in a can and then you didn't look back Just when I thought I have heaven one day Just like that, heaven was packed and gone away All you left was a field of dust You runaway circus You talked me in a ticket for two Payed with my heart for grand stand view But the start attraction was smoking magic Ooh, oh, you toss love around like a joggling act Ooh, oh, you put your heart in a can and then you didn't look back Just when I thought I have hit one day Just like that heaven was packed and gone away All you left was a field of dust You runaway circus Ooh, oh, ooh, oh, oh Ooh, you toss love around like a joggling act Ooh, oh, oh, you put your heart in a can and then you didn't look back! Just when I thought I have hit one day Just like that, heaven was packed and gone away All you left was a field of dust You runaway circus You runaway circus Runaway circus
