Don't Cry Out Loud

Baby cried the day the circus came to town
 'Cause she didn't want parades just passing by her
 So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
 And she danced without a net upon the wire
 I know a lot about her
 'Cause you see
 Baby is an awful love like me
 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
 ♪
 Baby saw that day they pulled the big top down
 They left behind her dreams among the litter
 And the different kind of love
 She thought she'd found
 There was nothing more but sawdust and some glitter
 But baby can't be broken
 'Cause you see
 She had the finest teacher that was me
 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 ooh
 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
