The Kid
I'm the kid who ran away with the circusNow I'm watering elephantsBut sometimes I lie awake in the sawdustDreaming I'm in a suit of lightLate at night in the empty big top I'm All alone on the high wireLook, he's working without a net this timeHe's a real death-daffier I'm the kid who always looked out the windowFailing tests in geographyBut I've seen things far beyond just the schoolyardDistant shores of exotic landsThey're the spires of the Turkish empireIt's six months since we made landfallRiding love with the spice of IndiaThrough Gibraltar, we're rich men all I'm the kid who thought we'd someday be loversAlways held out that time would tellTime was talking, I guess I just wasn't listeningNo surprise if you know me wellAnd as we're walking toward the train stationThere's a whispering rainfall'Cross the boulevard you slip your hand in mineIn the distance the train callsLetras de canciones I'm the kid who has this habit of dreamingSometimes gets me in trouble tooBut the truth is I could no more stop dreamingThan I could make them all come true
