'Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears, I need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute she's just a substitute
Because you're the permanent one
So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears, I need you
Hey, hey, yeah
Outside I'm masquerading
Inside my hope is fading
I'm just a clown, yeah, oh, since you put me down
My smile is my make up I wear since my break up with you
Baby, take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Baby, baby, baby, baby, take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
People say I'm the life of the party 'Cause I tell a joke or two Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears, I need you Since you left me if you see me with another girl Seeming like I'm having fun Although she may be cute she's just a substitute Because you're the permanent one So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears, I need you Hey, hey, yeah Outside I'm masquerading Inside my hope is fading I'm just a clown, yeah, oh, since you put me down My smile is my make up I wear since my break up with you Baby, take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears Baby, baby, baby, baby, take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears Explain Request ×
