Circus lyrics

If I look like home to you and if I am your sign

Don't try to understand it, girl, when I draw the line

It hasn't come to this that you can say I waste my time

Looking everywhere, going nowhere

For the skies, they look so lazy now, heavy are the clouds

There's nothing here that I can learn of what it's all about

You haven't said a thing to me and you talk so very loud

Looking everywhere, going nowhere

Well, I think I'll try the circus or go back to Mexico

It's time to make mistakes again, it's time to change the show

And it's time and time and time again to find another way

It's time to gather forces and get out of yesterday

Because I lost what I was looking for, there's nothing left

to share

I need to take myself away to be some other where

A face, a life, a minute more, I don't think I can spare

Looking everywhere, going nowhere

'Cause I tell you when you hurt me and you just don't seem

to know

I inform you that I'm lonely and you still don't think I'll go

So if I lie to you and smile a thought, it's only halfway here

It's just the circus and I'm singing, I'm never really near

If I look like home to you, if I am your sign

Don't try to understand it, girl, when I draw the line

It hasn't come to this that you can say I waste my time

Looking everywhere, looking everywhere

Looking anywhere, going nowhere
