mandy patinkin - molly lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i was a young man
i ran away from home
i went to join the circus
i went to see the cotton candy whirl
then make me lots of money on my own
for molly, oh, my pretty molly
she’s waiting all alone
someday soon i will return to her

[verse 2]
then i made the big time
bright lights, show biz
i’m really in the circus
there’s only one thing wrong
i haven’t saved a penny on my own
for molly, oh, my pretty molly
she’s writing every day
molly understands so it’s okay

[bridge]
ride a windy boxcar, see a thousand children young and old
ah, that greasepaint smile can hide your soul
here comes a carousel, guess which town it is
feel the thrill
greasepaint covers everything
but winter’s chill
[verse 3]
i’m reading molly’s letter
the ink is fading
and the page is turning yellow
long ago i promised molly
don’t you know i—
i will close my eyes and go to her
