It's Only A Paper Moon (Recording 1945) |
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 |
