Johnny Mathis
It’s Only a Paper Moon
[Intro]
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place
Ooh-ooh
A tiny bubble for a minute
Ooh-ooh
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it

[Verse 1]
Say, it's only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

[Verse 2]
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

[Bridge]
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a pеnny arcade
[Verse 3]
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phoney as it can bе
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

[Outro]
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phoney as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
