circus left town

• eric clapton'un ölen oğlu için yazdığı şarkılardan biri... sözleri çok hüzünlüdür...
  
  little man with his eyes on fire, and his smile so bright
  in his hands are the toys i gave that fill his heart with delight
  in a ring stays a circus clown holding up a light
  what you see and what you will hear will last you for the rest of your life
  
  and it's sad, so sad, there ain't no easy way around
  and it's sad, so sad, all your friends gather 'round
  'cause the circus left town
  
  little man with his heart so pure, and his love so fine
  stick with me and i'll ride with you 'till the end of the line
  hold my hand and i'll talk with you through the darkest night
  when i smile i'll be thinking of you and every little thing will be allright
  
  and it's sad, so sad, there ain't no easy way around
  and it's sad, so sad, all your friends gather 'round
  'cause the circus left town
