Love is like a circus and a carnival is beautiful to see
Love can turn your mind around like ferris wheels and spinning carosels
You'll be a part of the world of make believe
Flying high like a man on a trapeze
Oh, everyday is a holiday
Get your tickets right away
Love, love, love
Is the Greatest Show on Earth
The fantasy you see is like a child again through rainbow colored eyes
Step right up its circus time and get your moneys worth of love today
You'll be a part of the world of make believe
Flying high like a man on a trapeze
Everyday is a holiday
Get your tickets right away
Love, love, yea
Is the Greatest Show on Earth
Everyday is a holiday
Get your tickets right away
Love, love, love
Is the Greatest Show on Earth
Love, love, love
Is the greatest show on earth (yea e yea)
Love, love, yea
Is the greatest show on earth
Love, love, yea
