Silent as a meadow
Easy as a count to three
I see you slip away
My eyes are wide opened
I can see fine
I am awake

The circus started moving
But I am way too far behind
To hear the brutal noise awaking
And nothing I can do so I decide
To enjoy the lively colours they are making
Up a pony to look like a horse
Clowns are playing soldier on it's back

Rope dancer
I will break your fall
I 'll be right on time
To do my trick and disappear

I am waiting for you to come down
Your seat is already warm
Oh, master of my joyful ceremony
Drum rolls and the rolling of eyes
Oh, dear, the wire you walk is on fire

Rope dancer
I will break your fall
Oh, rope dancer
I will break your fall
I 'll be right on time
To do my trick and disappear

I will be on time
I will break your fazll
Those clowns are playing soldier on it's back
