One Man Circus

did you hear that trumpet sound, the day he took the plunge
nothing had prepared you for the shock
but not that has passed, open up, you silly book
let that old chapter burn away into your memory
and let's start filling these blank pages with something nice
better than any story ever told
help me grab this pencil to scribble everything you've never done

you know everything's fine when it's just you and i
wasting the night away with awkward words lost in the sky
this is when everything feels perfect and time extends
everything's in it's right place, slow it down now
spend a day inside my head, here's everything i've always wanted to say

i hear her sing, that angel in my head
she just continues to hum along that bittersweet tune
and girl you know i'll admit
that i truly do love it with all my heart
but let's keep this secret, just fly away bird

let's get caught up in a sea of trees
keep turning these pages cause it was destined to be
girl you know this was never meant to happen
wars waged over what would happen, words thrown out on the table
but you know i won't answer, just keep saying those magic words
hush, slow down, not just yet... GO!

now let me bring everyone up to speed
understand this please, this is no fake, only real
if i could only explain everything, you would completely understand
you this it's a setup and you know i'm afraid
so just grab me now and kiss me like you never have
and i'll untangle myself and tell you i love you
