Hear the children Laugh

When the Circus comes

I remember when

We were like that once

I can see the eyes

Looking into mine

I remember when

Every poem was written for us

And the stars came out

From behind the clouds at night

Remember when

there was a poem just for us..

Hear the song I sing

About the girl I loved

When the days were fine

When the times were young

Not so long ago

When the time was right

For our love to grow

When the day light turned to night

Just the two of us

Standing all alone

Looking ahead

Toward yesterday

But yesterday was dead.
