| Yes, it’s only a paper moon |
| Sailing over a cardboard sea |
| But it wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me Yes, it’s only a canvas sky |
| Hanging over a muslin tree |
| But it wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me Without your love |
| It’s a honky-tonk parade |
| Without your love |
| It’s a melody played on a penny arcade |
| It’s a Barnum and Bailey world |
| Just as phony as it could be But it wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me Yes, it’s only a paper moon |
| Sailing over that cardboard sea |
| It wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me It’s only a canvas sky |
| Hanging over a muslin tree |
| But it wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me Without your love |
| It’s a honky-tonk parade |
| Without your love |
| It’s a melody played on a penny arcade |
| It’s a Barnum and Bailey world |
| Just as phony as it could be It wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me Without your love |
| It’s a honky-tonk parade |
| Without your love |
| It’s a melody played on a penny arcade |
| It’s a Barnum and Bailey world |
| Just as phony as it could be But it wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me It wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me It wouldn’t be make believe |
| If you believe in me |
