In the end, he realizes that he needs to honor his promise to Molly and go back to her. Her letters remind him of who he is and what's important to him.
Molly becomes his anchor, the one constant in his life that he can rely on. The circus, with its superficiality and transience, is a place where he can hide from his problems, but it's also lonely. The protagonist leaves behind everything he knows to chase after fame and fortune, but despite his success, he realizes that he's not fulfilled. The song is a reflection on how chasing one's dreams can lead to unintended consequences. The ink is fading, and the pages are turning yellow, but he vows to keep his promise to her. The protagonist is left with nothing but the letters he receives from Molly, which he treasures. The circus, with its bright lights and greasepaint smiles, is a place where one can hide their soul. Despite making it big in show business, he realizes that he hasn't saved a penny for her.
