[Verse 1]
We thought we were the greatest show on Earth
Two kids running around, kicking up dirt
Falling, flying
Big top loving in a little old town
When you're high-wire walking, don't you dare look down
And tease the lions
[Chorus]
Oh, you toss love around like a juggling act
Oh, you put your heart in a cannon and you didn't look back
Just when I thought I had Heaven one day
Just like that, Heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus
[Verse 2]
You talked me into a ticket for two
Played with my heart for a grandstand view
But the star attraction
Was smoke and magic
[Chorus]
Oh, you toss love around like a juggling act
Oh, you put your heart in a cannon and you didn't look back
Just when I thought I had Heaven one day
Just like that, Heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus
You runaway circus
[Bridge]
Oh
Oh
[Chorus]
Oh, you toss love around like a juggling act
Oh, you put your heart in a cannon and you didn't look back
Just when I thought I had Heaven one day
Just like that, Heaven was packed and gone away
All you left was a field of dust
You runaway circus
You runaway circus
You runaway circus
