Baby cried the day
the circus came to town,
Cause she didn't want parades
just passing by her.
So she painted on a smile
and took up with some clown,
While she danced without
a net upon the wire.
I know a lot about her, '
cause you see,
Baby, is an awful
lot like me.
Don't cry out loud,
Just keep it inside,
And learn how to hide
your feelings.
Fly high and proud.
And if you should fall,
Remember you almost
had it all.
Baby saw that when
they pulled that big top down,
They left behind her dreams
among the litter.
The different kind of love
she thought she'd found,
There was nothing left
but sawdust and some glitter.
But Baby can't be broken,
'cause you see,
She had the finest teacher,
that was me.
I told her:
Don't cry out loud,
Just keep it inside,
And learn how to
hide your feelings.
Fly high and proud.
And if you should fall,
Remember you almost
had it alllllll
Ohhh ohhh heyy yeahhhhh
Oooohhh woohhh
Don't cry out loud,
Just keep it inside,
learn how to
hide your feelings.
Fly high and proud.
And if you should fall,
Remember you
almost made it.
Don't cry out loud,
Just keep it inside,
And learn how
to hide your feelings.
Fly high and proud.
And if you should fall,
Remember you almost
had it alllllllll
