lyrics

Still I got nowhere to go
After all these tortured years
So I'll call you on the telephone
And tell you what you've got to hear

I'll take you by your little hands
And show you where I've been all day
Been dreaming of a thought I had
I wonder if you're here to stay

At the end of the cul de sac
Lives a dog who barks away
At the end of the tunnel in my mind
I can hear him all day

In the zoo there's a little man
Doing magic for monkeys
And in the rain stands a circus clown
Smiling out the wrinkles wondering

You're floating on a sea of gold
Drinking up the rays of sun
But really you're just getting old
And soon enough you'll be no fun

So darling won't you come with me
And join this rightful state of mind
The river won't dry this easily
At least not when it's mine

At the end of the cul de sac
Lives a dog who barks away
At the end of the tunnel in my mind
I can hear him all day

In the zoo there's a little man
Doing magic for monkeys
And in the rain stands a circus clown
Smiling out the wrinkles wondering
