Yesterday I got lost in the circus
Feeling like such a mess
Now I'm down I'm just hanging on the corner
I can't help but reminisce

'Cause when you're gone all the colors fade
When you're gone no New Year' Day parade
You're gone colors seem to fade

Your mama called, she said that you're downstairs crying
Feeling like such a mess
Yeah, I hear ya background bawling
What happened to your sweet summer time dress?

I know we all, all got our faults
We get locked in our voids and make mistakes

When you're gone all the colors fade
When you're gone no New Year's Day parade
You're gone colors seem to fade
You're gone colors seem to fade, yeah
