Baby cried the day the circus came to town
'Cause she didn't like parades just passing by her
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
And she danced without a net up on the wire
I know a lot about her 'cause you see
Baby is an awful lot like me
We don't cry out loud
We keep it inside
Learned how to hide our feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
Whatever goes on inside us is nobody`s business
It`s private
Don`t you ever forget that
Remember you almost had it all
Don't cry out loud
Just keep it inside
Learn how to hide your feelings
Fly high and proud
And if you should fall
Remember you almost had it all
You almost had it all
