come on and spend the night

under the circus lights

wanna see you high above the ground.

you know i've swallowed fire

i've fallen off the wire

too many times before

and you're asking me



to show you more love

more life more heat

you're asking me

shaking, burning,

to show you more

more life more heat

you ask and

we can't say what comes

when these circus lights go out



i'll be the tattooed man

you can be the acrobat

i'll try to catch you when you fall

we'll be together then

like a pair of saimese twins

entwined against the floor

tell me what more could you ask for



more more life more heat

you're asking me

shaking burning

to show you more

more life more heat

you ask and

we can't say what comes

when these circus lights go out.

when these circus lights go...

when these circus lights go out



are you innocent no one's innocent

still like to hear the big crowd roar

when I see that light

everybody dressed in white

will you be there by the door

will show me what I'm looking for



more life more heat i'm askin please

shaking burning, show more love

more life more heat

you ask and we can't say what comes

when these circus lights go out

when these circus lights go...



i slid away, what's going on

i slid away, what's going on

i slid away, what's going on

i slid away, what's going on
