lyrics

This life is a is a carnival, it's a ball
Telling fortunes, reading palms
writing poems in the stalls
laughing loud, playing clown, spinning 'round in a waltz
Since the day that i first fell in love
I've been hooked up on the fall

Fell through the floor, fell & fell
Through the core of the earth
through the fires of hell
Looking up at the darkness and silence above
I keep falling and falling and falling in love

You poke the prophet out
you show devil how
death is all sweetness and light
In my dreams i am practicing scenes
for your garden of delight

Your love blanket to an eskimo
Your love is a hat to the bald
Your love lets the caller and the called disappear and be lost inside the call

Right through the floor I fell & fell
Through the core of the earth and the fires of hell
I look up at the darkness and the silence above
& keep falling and falling and falling in love
