It’s Only a Paper Moon
It is only a paper moon
sailing over a cardboard sea,
But it wouldn’t be make believe
If you believed in me.
It is only a canvas sky
Hanging 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.
