Lyrics Peter Frampton

Peter Frampton

The Crying Clown

Don't you see?

It wasn't meant to be

Keep on till you die

When lying down

We kick the crying clown

And there's never a thought

Of how he lifts a frown

The longer you love

The longer you live

The stronger you feel

The more you can give

It's dying like sand, sand in a sieve

Where is the time to remain?

Well don't forget

The day you ever met

Trying to believe

It wasn't wasted time

You sipping gin and wry

You had to walk away

It haunts you every day

The longer you love

The longer you live

The stronger you feel

The more you can give

Floating away, day in the rain

The lady you love can't sustain

The longer you love

The longer you live

The stronger you feel

The more you can give

We're dying like sand, sand in a sieve

Where is the time to remain?

The longer you love

The longer you live

The stronger you feel

The more you can give

Floating away, day in the rain

The lady you love can't sustain

The longer you love

The longer you live

The stronger you feel

The more you can give

You're floating away, day in the rain

The lady you love will sustain
