David Wilcox - Human Cannonball lyrics

from Turning Point

..............................................

Time, this time

finally the moment is mine

The crowd is wowed

I'm walkin' to the cannon so proud

The cannon fills the spotlight

so shot me to the view

My heart packed full of dynamite

so I will fall for you,

all for you, baby

See this is your big top baby

and you've got all your clowns

around you too

I can hear that drumroll baby

and that means that

the torch is to the fuse

Love, true love

I can feel it when I'm high above

but I fall, that's all

I'm your human cannonball

Always dreamed of flyin'

and now the dream comes true

I'm not afriad of dyin'

so I will fall for you, all for you, baby

This is your big top, baby

Yeah you've got all your clowns

around it's true

Why are you just smilin' at me fallin'

Oh maybe this is keeping you amused

I was the one you wanted

If i could stay that high

If I could burn my sorrow

like it was fuel to fly

The sound comes 'round

now I wake up

with my ear to the ground

I rise surprised

so this is how a fool gets wise, oh

I'm gonna leave

your three-ring-circus

I was a fool to fall

I'm gonna leave

your three-ring-circus

your human cannonball
