Moody Blues - My Brother lyrics

now that the show is over

and the people have all gone

I face the final curtain

it's just the same old song

I make 'em laugh - I make 'em cry

dream on loud until I die alone

with a heart of stone?

I'm pushing every fader

for tenderness and fame

another masquerader

and noone left to blame

the tears inside - the burning rains

I have to hide - my smile remains

as long as walls come tumbling down

the world always needs a clown

I know the world keeps spinning round

and round and round again

I catch the flames of yesterday

and I do the best I can

well, I'm the entertainer

a poet in the ring

some call me a joker

and some like to hear me sing

the world always needs a clown
