It's Only a Paper Moon
(Harold Arlen)
Say it's only a paper moon, sailing
over a Cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make believe, if
you believed in me.
Yes 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 honky tonk
parade - With-
out 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.
