John Denver — Circus

If I look like home to you, if I am your sign Don't try to understand it, girl, when I draw the line It hasn't come to this that you can say I waste my time Looking everywhere, going nowhere For the skies they look so lazy now, heavy are the clouds There's nothing here that I could learn or what it's all about You haven't said a thing to me and you talk so very loud Looking everywhere, going nowhere Well I think I'll try the circus or go back to Mexico It's time to make mistakes again, it's time to change the show It's time and time and time again to find another way It's time to gather forces and get out of yesterday Because I lost what I was looking for, there's nothing left to share I need to take myself away to be some other where A face, a life, a minute more, I don't think I can spare Looking everywhere, going nowhere Cause I tell you when you hurt me and you just don't seem to know I inform you that I'm lonely and you still don't think I'll go So if I lie to you and smile a thought, it's only half way here It's just the circus, and I'm singing I'm never really near If I look like home to you, If I am your sign Don't try to understand it, girl, when I draw the line It hasn't come to this that you can say I waste my time Looking everywhere Looking everywhere Looking anywhere, going nowhere
