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 dance 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 learn
how to hide your feelings
fly high 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
and a different kind of
love she thought she found
there was nothing left but
saw dust 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 learn
how to hide your feelings
fly high proud
and if you should fall
remember you almost had it all
oh oooh oooh ohh yeah
don't cry out loud
just keep it inside learn
how to hide your feelings
fly high proud
and if you should fall
remember you almost made it
don't cry out loud
just keep it inside learn
how to hide your feelings
fly high proud
and if you should fall
remember you almost had it all
