Say it’s only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn’t be a make believe
If you believed in me
It’s only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
It wouldn’t be a 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 & Bailey world
Just as phony as it could be
But it wouldn’t be a make believe
If you believed in me
It’s a Barnum & Bailey world
Just as phony as it could be
But it wouldn’t be a make believe
If you believed in me
