How We Remember It

Packing up the carnival again Leaving's not as exciting as arriving There were nights when the music was so loud Billie came down and we spun the waltzers round And round Bobby Boyd took over on the wall of death 'Gravity does not apply,' he said 'if you have friends.' But in the end the wheel stopped turning Lorries were loaded, engines turning Heading out To a different town This is how we remember it Sooner or later your time starts running out On a bus or a train in a photograph Say goodbye to the circus leaving town Cause there's a long road out heading south Candy floss and rides and cigarettes Summer nights we never will forget We were counting on one last turn Taking the ghost train round and round again Again This is how we remember it Sooner or later your time starts running out On a bus or a train in a photograph Say goodbye to the circus leaving town Cause there's a long road out heading south There's a long road out heading south The grass is bare from when the fairground stood here There's a chill in the late October air We're not there This is how we remember it Sooner or later your time starts running out On a bus or a train in a photograph Say goodbye to the circus leaving town Cause there's a long road out heading south There's a long road out heading south There's a long road out heading south
