Locked Away 歌詞

I used to watch the circus come to town, and queue up for the show. I used to fool around and play the clown, a long, long time ago. Another suitcase with another story, another letter in the hallway for me. Another chance of never being there, and then I met a girl with a curious stare So I told you, and you told her, how much I'd like to hold her. And now I'm five years older I wish I'd never told you, I'd like to hold you, but you keep me locked away, locked away. I never thought of her as being like a consolation prize, It took some history and lots of mistakes to open up my eyes. And now a different girl is cutting up 'Mars bars' a season ticket is replacing fast cars. The curtain's up but the lights are down, the curious stare has re-emerged as a frown. So I told you, and you told her, how much I'd like to hold her. And now I'm five years older I wish I'd never told you, I'd like to hold you, but you keep me locked away, locked away. A complication in the twilight zone, the juggler fell down. The staring girl is living on her own, the other girl is happy living with her clown. So I told you, and you told her, how much I'd like to hold her. And now I'm five years older, I wish I'd never told you, I'd like to hold you, but you keep me locked away, locked away.
