Lyrics for Circus Of Heaven by Yes:

The day the Circus of Heaven came to town
Local folks lined the
streets in a Midwestern town
Waiting anxiously for the parade to begin all around
On the
very last day
A unicorn headed the mystical way
Surrounded by what seemed a thousand
golden angels at play
Behind were Centaurs, elves, bright fairies all in colours of
jade
On the very final day
For what seemed only just a moment in time
Seven
solemn flying silvered regal horses rode by
Seven golden chariots in tow, a wonder to
behold
The Seven Lords of the Mountains of Time
There then arose where nothing really
stood there before
A giant tent rising one thousand feet high frofrom the floor
Towns
people flocked inside with their eyes all amazed
To greet the Seventh Lord of the seventh
age
A fanfare rang out in an incredible sound
Bringing out the strangest visions perfect
harmony round
Any dreams he asked would they like to have seen
>From historical or
mythical scenes
Then there above their heads just as vivid as life
Each vision
transported multitudes inventing light
Grecian galleons, the sack of Troy, to the Gardens of
Babylon
A play of millions roared along
The gigantic dreams of Alexander the
Great
Civil wars where fbrothers fought and killed their friendship with hate
All seen by
Zeus performing scenes in the magical way
The day the circus came to town
Outside
great animals as tame as the trees
Angels high in starlight dancing streets
Turning their
colours with indigo and gold
Dropping violet, red and emerald snow
As the circus finally
changed its invisible course
A new world to be found
On the dreamy ground we walked
upon
I turned to my son and said
"Was that something beautiful, amazing, wonderful,
extraordinary
beautiful?"
"Oh! It was OK!! But there were no clowns, no tigers,
lions or bears,
cand-floss, toffee apples, no clowns."
