She's a big top ten with bright spotlights

That woman sure knows how to shine

You almost can't believe your eyes

You can hardly wait to see the sign

She'll have you walking that high wire

Jumping through her rings of fire

Give you your moment in the sun

Be careful not to fall in love

Cause that curtain falls

The lights go out

The show goes on

She leaves town

If you know what's good for you

You'll just let her go

Or you'll end up next to me in her sideshow

I remember all that spotlight fades

When she wanted me and no one else

Nowadays I play my part

Pay a dime you'll see my broken heart

That curtain falls

The lights go out

The show goes on

She leaves town

If you know what's good for you

You'll just let her go

Or you'll end up next to me in her sideshow

And if you know what's good for you

You'll just let her go

Don't end up next to me in her sideshow
