You’re going away
So old and gray
Now is the time
To call it a day
You’ve got to leave
Your funny old clothes
The shiny red nose
The children loved so
Now it’s the spring, bye bye
The travelling fair
Is going away
Leaving you there
The big Russian bear
The sawdusty ring
Trapeze in the air
Balloons on a string
Goodbye to dreaming
Now that you’re leaving
Hold your head higher and higher
A clown doesn’t cry
Goodbye to dreaming
Now that you’re leaving, you know well
You’re no longer the star
Whose magical tricks
Made us come from so far
See this little boy
You knew him before
He’s grown up a man
He holds in his hand
A child who could be
A son of his own
Don’t tremble old friend
It’s only the end
