in disguise

it was five years ago at the carnival, while i was pitching my tent, i was approached by a carnie girl, and oh, she seemed heaven sent, her eyes were like diamonds, and lips, they were full and red, and her hair, a black forest, swung from her head, my heart skipped a beat, and i felt complete, as i gazed into her eyes, and then when i turned around, i found she was gone, we never said goodbye, it wad four years ago at the carnvial, as i was counting my pence, there next to me was a clown girl, from one of the old clowning tents, her stilts made her so tall, like a mime, said nothing at all, but her smile was the sweetest i can recall, my heart skipped a beat, and i felt complete, as i gazed into her eyes, and then when i turned around, i found she was gone, we never said goodbye, it was three years ago at the carnival, as i prepared for the show, suddenly growling there next to me, was an awesome and fierce wendigo, her mouth dripped with red, the blood from something she bled, and her antlers were the tallest i've ever known, my heart skipped a beat, and i felt complete, as i gazed into her eyes, and then when i turned around, i found she was gone, we never said goodbye, what kind of man am i?, that i fall in love, with so many women at a time, leaves me wondering, what kind of love is mine, it's fickle and grounded, and lives in the skies, in the skies, in the skies, in the skies, my love, it lives in the skies, in the skies, it was two years ago at the carnival, i freed unicorns from a sack, i ran into a succubus, with great mighty wings on her back, when she waved, then i said "wow!, it feels just like a blizzard now", but she raided my soul, and looted my heart somehow, my heart skipped a beat, and i felt complete, as i gazed into her eyes, and then when i turned around, i found she was gone, we never said goodbye, it was one year ago at a carnival, as i put bats in a bin, up to my tent came a cavegirl, bedecked in an animal skin, i was intrigued by this legend, from some kind of league, as more of her flesh, was outside of her vesture than in, my heart skipped a beat, and i felt complete, as i gazed into her eyes, and then when i turned around, i found she was gone, we never said goodbye, it was just yesterday at the masquerade, as i was tending my flock, when a victorian pirate queen, sidled up to the dock, i said "well hello!, you're someone that i'd like to know", and just then i heard midnight, chime on the clock, she skipped not a beat, my shop was complete, as she gazed into my eyes, and then she said to me, "don't you realize?, it's me, it's me, don't you see?, can't you see?, the carnie, the clown girl, the wendigo, succubus, cavegirl and queen?", what kind of lass is she?, that i'd fall in love, with the same woman time after time, when you fall in love with a girl like her, know you'll have to learn, to see through the disguise, the disguise, the disguise, the disguise, my love she lives in disguise, in disguise, in disguise, in disguise, in disguise, she lives her life in disguise, in disguise
