Romanovsky And Phillips - Carnival People lyrics

Let's hear it for the people of the stage And the silver screen and the printed page Give us a place where it's okay To laugh and cry and to feel our pain Jesters and clowns and carnival people Trying to make it a little bit easier Singing and playing so fine All in a day's work, all in a lifetime But it's not all magic as it may seem We're just small people with great big dreams A song and dance, a valentine To help you read between the lines We're not up here to tell you what's right or wrong We haven't got answers, we just have our song And we sing, and we dance, and we play But it's you who's here, look at yourself on the stage We fall in love to lose our fear Refuse to look into a mirror But carnival people won't tell you those lies We'll open the door and let your demons inside Go running wild And when the show is done and the lights go on It's a brand new day, it's a new dawn And as you leave don't feel alone The prize is there, so take it home Jesters and clowns and carnival people Trying to make it a little bit easier Singing and playing so fine All in a day's work, all in a lifetime All in a day's work, all in a lifetime
