I was just a little girl
When I ran away from home
The circus beckoned me to run
Well, I was the star of a show
And I had my own review
You were handsome
I was funny
And you had lots of money
Oh, but nothing as precious as you
We fell in love on the lover's trapeze
You carried me up to my dreams
Well, I swept you away to the dazzling heights
You showed me the ropes, all right
You were a feather in my arms
And you were the wind beneath my tights
Oh, a picture of you!, That's you, my dear
And you're still one hunk of a guy
If you ever let me go, I shall die!
I'm never going to let that happen
Don't you worry, darling
We fell in love on the lover's trapeze
You carried me up to my dreams
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
Lalalalalala lalalalalala
We fell in love on the lover's trapeze
You carried me up to my dreams
And though we are older
And slightly less sober
The show's never over
Ah, honey, can't we retire?
Never, darling!
We've still got each other to please
