When we first met, on a Circus Night
   you played the clown though you were down.
   And on your face, like it has to be
   one eye was smiling, in the other a tear.
  
   I started to wonder, what' s behind that mask
   is it a dream or an idea of death
   You took my hand, took my whole soul
   since then I feel bad, when I'm alone.
  
   Please, take the shortest way
   take the shortest way
   don't cross the river, don't stop in town
  
   I want you with me to stay
   please take the shortest way
   Please, take the shortest way
  
   I count the minutes, I count the days
   until you're back with me to stay
   please take the shortest way
  
   In my whole life, never had that before
   you're in my heart, it won' t fall apart.
   Sometimes you tell me with a smile on your face
   a sweet little story, how nice life could be
  
   and then I wonder, 'bout the tear in your eye
   what could there be that makes you feel sad
   a time long past, is still on your mind
   and the role of the clown is to feel free
  
   When you come back to stay by my side
   I'll close my eyes, there won't be no lies
   you learn how to listen, you learn how to see
   I carry you and you carry me
  
   The clown had a secret, in the arena of life
   but I know your face when it's not painted
   the secret has gone, just like the tear in your eye
   gone with the circus from town to town
