Its Only a Paper Moon
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
