From the moment she saw the place
it overwhelmed all her senses
When the circus had to come to town
she snuck on in through the fences
She beheld a new universe
A world of wonders and flight, free
The trapeze and the acrobats
Defying gravity nightly
She stood on her aching legs, and so they did beg
to sit and enjoy the show
Rejoice at their song and dance for more than a glance
Before it was over
She returned every time she could
To see them all overhead
and her wish was to be up there
But she would watch them instead
She sat, resting both her legs, regaining her strength
Amazed as she viewed the show
Rejoiced at their song and dance for more than a glance
Before it was over
While she looked on from the floor, her heart yearned for more
She wanted to join the show
Be part of their song and dance, fulfill that romance
Before it was over
Though the tent was the centerpiece
Within a vast traveling fair
She could see vintage aeroplanes
Doing spins in the air
She stood on her aching legs, but still they did beg
to stay and enjoy the show
Rejoice at their song and dance for more than a glance
Before it was over
Here her life would take a turn, the moment she learned
The skies could be touched by her
She saw through their song and dance, had a new chance
But then it was over
