Lyrics

people say I'm the life of the party, cause I tell a joke or two
although I might be laughing loud and hearty, deep inside I'm blues

so take a good look at my face,
you'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears
I need you, need you

since you left me if you see me with another girl
seeming like I'm havin' fun
although she might be cute, she's just a substitute,
because you're the permanent one

so take a good look at my face,
you'll see my smile looks out of place
if you look closer it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears
(outside), I'm masqueradin',
(inside) my heart's a fadin',
(just a clown), since you put me down
my smile is my make-up I wear since my break up with you

so take a good look at my face,
you'll see my smile looks out of place
if you look closer it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears
