Paper Moon lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place
Mmm, mmm, mmm, a bubble for a minute
Mmm, mmm, you smile
The bubble has a rainbow in it

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Without your love
It's a honky tank parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

[Verse 2]
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, oh
[Scatting]

[Verse 3]
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 penny arcade

[Outro]
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, oh

[Scatting]
