Sacred Thing Songtext

von The Black Sorrows

A curtain finally closes
Lights fade out this town
They're cutting up yesterdays roses
Ain't no circus without a clown

The moon is tired and tattered
Stars just disappear
Dreams of love lie shattered
What's a side show without a tear

But don't you cry
Or let your world turn blue
Reveal your disguise
Save those tears
Baby I've cried for you
For all these years
That would never do

That is why
There's magic and mystery
Sacred things you whispered to me
Summer never really ends
My poor heart still pretends
Each night on this road
I wait in the dark
Silent and cold
And pray that your heart
Was mine to hold
A curtain finally closes
Lights fade out this town
They're cutting up yesterday roses
Ain't no circus without a clown

But don't you cry
Or let your world turn blue
Reveal your disguise
Oh no not you
That is why
There's magic and mystery
Sacred things you whispered to me
Summer never really ends
My poor heart still pretends
Each night on this road
I wait in the dark
Silent and cold
And pray that your heart
Was mine to hold
