lyrics

Take a look around at this city:
a carnival of wonders and fears.
Everybody's tumbling and spinning
to catch a dream that just disappears.

Don't give up, little sister,
don't give up on me.
Don't give up, little sister,
don't give up.

Because even when the stars begin to fall,
I'll be on your side forever more.
Even at the final curtain call
of this carnival.

The fortune-telling lady she told me:
I never wanted to be born.
But when the crowd is gone and you hold me,
I think I know what this life is for.

Don't give up, little sister,
don't give up on me.
Don't give up, little sister,
don't give up.

Because even when the stars begin to fall,
I'll be on your side forever more.
Even at the final curtain call
of this carnival.

And even when they tear the tent tops down,
even when they bring the wagons round,
you and I will be here after all
of this carnival.
