About the Artist
Lyrics
Said it's 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 Without your love, it's a honky-tonk parade Without your love, it's a melody played in a penny arcade Yes, 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 If you believed in me If you believed in me
