Locked Away

Hotknives


I used to watch the circus come to town,
and queue up for the show.
I used to fool around and play the clown,
a long, long time ago.

Another suitcase with another story,
another letter in the hallway for me.
Another chance of never being there,
and then I met a girl with a curious stare

So I told you, and you told her,
how much I'd like to hold her.
And now I'm five years older
I wish I'd never told you,
I'd like to hold you,
but you keep me locked away,
locked away.

I never thought of her as being like
a consolation prize,
It took some history and lots of mistakes
to open up my eyes.

And now a different girl is cutting up 'Mars bars'
a season ticket is replacing fast cars.
The curtain's up but the lights are down,
the curious stare has re-emerged as a frown.

So I told you, and you told her,
how much I'd like to hold her.
And now I'm five years older
I wish I'd never told you,
I'd like to hold you,
but you keep me locked away,
locked away.

A complication in the twilight zone,
the juggler fell down.
The staring girl is living on her own,
the other girl is happy living with her clown.

So I told you, and you told her,
how much I'd like to hold her.
And now I'm five years older,
I wish I'd never told you,
I'd like to hold you,
but you keep me locked away,
locked away.
