The Carnival Is Over

Dead Can Dance

Outside, the storm clouds gathering
Moved silently along the dusty boulevard
Where flowers turning crane their fragile necks
So they can in turn, reach up and kiss the skyThey are driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye
Someone is callingI remember when you held my hand
In the park we would play
When the circus came to town
Over hereOutside, the circus gathering
Moved silently along the rain swept boulevard
The procession moved on the shouting is over
The fabulous freaks are leaving townThey are driven by a strange desire
Unseen by the human eye
Someone is callingThe carnival is overWe sat and watched
As the moon rose
For the very first time
