It is only
| a paper moon
| Hanging over
| a cardboard sea
| But it wouldn't be
| make believe
| If you believed
| in me
| It is only
| a canvas sky
| Sailing over
| a muslin tree
| But it wouldn't be
| make believe
| If you believed in me
| without your love
| It's a
| honky~tonk parade
| Without your love
| It's a melody
| Played in a
| penny arcade
| It's a barnum
| and bailey world
| Just as phony as
| it can be
| But it wouldn't be
| make believe
| If you believed
| in me~
|
| Without your love
| It's a honky~tonk
| Parade
| without your love
| It's a melody played
| in a penny arcade
| It's a barnum and
| bailey world
| Just as phony
| as it can be
| But it wouldn't
| be make believe
| If you believed
| in me~
