| Say, it's only a papermoon, | | | |
|
sailing over a cardboard sea, | | | |
|
But it wouldn't be make believe, | | | |
|
if you believed in me. | | | |
|
| | | |
|
It's 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 honkey-tonk parade, | | | |
|
without your love | | | |
|
it's a melody played in a penny arcade. | | | |
|
| | | |
|
It's a Barnum and Baily world, | | | |
|
just as phoney as it can be. | | | |
|
But it wouldn't be make believe, | | | |
|
if you believed in me. | | | |
