Favorite Quote:
Scenery is nothing more than poetry.
Love is nothing more than chemicals.
'Cause fairy tales are just scribbled pages filled with happy endings and little white lies.
One person can make a difference, but a crowd can make a change.


It's that time of the year where you come back to town,
To reel in all of the people around.
'Cause you're a performer for the show,
Stole my heart straight from the front row.
I rode your Ferris wheel all the way to the top,
High on you, wishing the ride would never stop.
So explain to me why you do this?
Our love is one crazy circus...
You come and go,
With your carnival.
It feels like you're gone forever.
And when you're on the road,
I hope you're writing me a cute little note.
That you'll give me the next year we're together.
'Cause you and I are meant to be,
Yeah, you and I are meant to be...
The flashing lights draw me in,
And I hover to your trailer once again.
Hopping on the carousel for a trip back memory lane,
When we held hands and I told you my name.
I got your number and a photograph with a signature,
But I knew when the tent was taken down it would be torture.
So I patiently wait for you,
To come back like you always do...
You come and go,
With your carnival.
It feels like you're gone forever.
And when you're on the road,
I hope you're writing me a cute little note.
That you'll give me the next year we're together.
'Cause you and I are meant to be,
Yeah, you and I are meant to be...
Fireworks are set off for your grand finale,
As I sit in the back of this alley.
Waiting for you to magically appear,
I'll get that kiss you deliver every year.
Then you'll be gone before I can even think,
The show will vanish within a blink.
I'm stuck here with an expired ticket,
One night of heartbreak and love, but it's always worth it...
You come and go,
With your carnival.
It feels like you're gone forever.
And when you're on the road,
I hope you're writing me a cute little note.
That you'll give me the next year w e're together.
'Cause you and I are meant to be,
Yeah, you and I are meant to be...
