[00:22.90] I'm the kid who ran away with the circus
[00:32.69] Now I'm watering elephants
[00:43.18] But I sometimes lie awake in the sawdust
[00:53.73] Dreaming I'm in a suit of light
[01:04.27] Late at night in the empty big top
[01:08.76] I'm all alone on the high wire
[01:15.13] Look he's working without a net this time
[01:20.55] He's a real death defier
[01:26.10] I'm the kid who always looked out the window
[01:37.23] Failing tests in geography
[01:47.59] But I've seen things far beyond just the schoolyard
[01:58.09] Distant shores of exotic lands
[02:08.82] They're the spires of the Turkish Empire's
[02:13.64] Six months since we made landfall
[02:19.62] Riding low with the spice of India
[02:24.99] Through Gibraltar we're rich men all
[02:34.53]
[02:51.95] I'm the kid who thought we'd someday be lovers
[03:02.53] Always held out that time would tell
[03:11.18]
[03:12.74] Time was talking I guess I just wasn't listening
[03:23.68] No surprise if you know me well
[03:34.14] As we're walking toward the train station
[03:39.45] There's a whispering rainfall
[03:45.00] Across the boulevard you slip your hand in mine
[03:50.55] In the distance the train calls
[03:55.98] I'm the kid who has this habit of dreaming
[04:06.92] Sometimes gets me in trouble too
[04:17.65] But the truth is I could no more stop dreaming
[04:27.85]
[04:29.10] Than I could make them all come true
[04:37.40]
[04:47.45] Than I could make them all come true
