Baby cried the day
the circus
came to town
'Cause she didn't want
parades just
passin' 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 the
big top down
They left behind
her dreams
among the litter
And the different
kind of love
she thought
she'd found
There was nothin' 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 all........
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
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 all..........
