under the circus lights - owl city lyrics

[verse 1]
once upon a summer, a travelling circus came to town
from the land down under
and i was filled with wonder
when i saw the girl on the flying trapeze
tear through the air with the greatest of ease
i got cotton candy and then in a daze, i met her gaze
and she winked right at me
and my heart pounded madly
when i saw the girl on the flying trapeze
capture the crowd with the greatest of ease
[chorus]
shе was a light in a dark lullaby
that girl was raised by a b*tterfly
i swear whеn i caught her eye, i could almost fly
and under the circus lights
i must have fallen in love that night

[verse 2]
lighter than a feather
but careful as with a heavy heart
she seemed to fall forever
and then i wondered whether
i noticed the girl on the flying trapeze
blink back a tear with the greatest of ease
and she took my breath away
oh, so grand and graceful
confetti rained as she climbed through the air
like a homesick angel
she makes heartache painful
i thought as the girl on the flying trapeze
melted my heart with the greatest of ease

[chorus]
what a display of rosé poetry
what a majestic menagerie
i swear when i caught her eye, i could almost fly
and under the circus lights
i must have fallen in love that night
[interlude]
ladies and gentlemen
welcome to the most spectacular show on earth

[bridge]
(and she took my breath away)
i was so enamored
(and she took my breath away)
all that glitz and glamor
(and she took my breath away)
i was so enamored
and that’s how the girl on the flying trapeze
knocked me off my feet with the greatest of ease

[verse 3]
and then with a charming sweetness
she smiled and waved and took a bow
for a crowd stunned speechless
and i was charmed to pieces
when the girl on the flying trapeze
magically dissolved like a song on the breeze
and simply broke my heart with the greatest of ease

[chorus]
we shook the floor with a roar of applause
she seemed to drown in the oohs and aahs
i hung around ’til the clowns
tore the big top down
and soon it was almost dawn
i looked and looked but the girl was gone
[outro]
deep down, i felt kinda blue for a day or two
then clear as a bell, i knew
i would run away with the circus too
