Said It Is Only A Paper Moon

Sailing Over A Cardboard Sea,

But It Wouldn't Be Make Believe

If You Believed In Me.



Say 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.



(Interlude)



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.
