[Verse 1]
Well, the days are long and the work is hard
When your childhood is spent in the fields
And summer seemed to last million years
One day when I was just a boy
During one of those hot summer swells
The locusts were silenced by the clanging of bells
[Chorus]
And there was the thing for which I longed
A place where I belonged
Where I first held the hand of the one I love
When the circus came to town
[Verse 2]
We ate candy corn and corndogs
Cotton candy and candy canes
And we shared a caramel apple by the arcade
And when night fell and the stars rose
And light bedazzled the fair
We rode the Ferris wheel
Up into the air
[Chorus]
And there was the thing for which I longed
A place where I belonged
Where I first held the hand of the one I love
When the circus came to town
Well, the days are long and the work is hard
When your childhood is spent in the fields
And summer seemed to last million years
One day when I was just a boy
During one of those hot summer swells
The locusts were silenced by the clanging of bells
[Chorus]
And there was the thing for which I longed
A place where I belonged
Where I first held the hand of the one I love
When the circus came to town
[Verse 2]
We ate candy corn and corndogs
Cotton candy and candy canes
And we shared a caramel apple by the arcade
And when night fell and the stars rose
And light bedazzled the fair
We rode the Ferris wheel
Up into the air
[Chorus]
And there was the thing for which I longed
A place where I belonged
Where I first held the hand of the one I love
When the circus came to town
