Tiny pieces of my heart
Like confetti everywhere
Hidden sorrows in the dark
You can feel it in the air
The spotlight finds me
I can no longer hide my frown
Say hello to a lover's clownDistorted mirror images
Turn the good to bad
If that's not the way it is
Why am I so sad?
Strangers laughter is the only sound
Silence from a lover's clownGirl that's me everybody's laughin' at
With a big red nose and the tears and the silly act
Comedy, tragedy, reality
It all plays the same
If you don't want meTumblin' from the high wire
Without a net
You're saying I'll stop falling for you
But I haven't yet
The spotlight dims and the big top's comin' down
Curtains over the lover's clownGirl, that's me everybody's laughin' at
With a big red nose and the tears and the silly act
Comedy, tragedy, reality
It all plays the same
If you don't want meTiny pieces of my heart
Scattered everywhere
Like a fool I played my part
But you were never really there
A new day dawns and the big top's leavin' town
You can say goodbye to a lover's clown
Say goodbye
