People say i'm the life of the party
'cause i tell a joke or two
although they might be laughing loud and hearty
deep inside i'm blue
so take a good look at my face
you'll see my smile looks out of place
if you look closer, it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears...
i need you, need you
if you see me with another girl
seeming like i'm having fun
although she may be cute
she's just a substitute
because you're the permanent one...
so take a good look at my face
you'll see my smile looks out of place
if you look closer, it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears...
i need you, need you
outside i'm masquerading
inside my hope is fading
just a clown oh yeah
since you put me down
my smile is my make up
i wear since my break up with you...
baby, baby, baby take a good look at my face
you'll see my smile looks out of place
if you look closer, it's easy to trace
the tracks of my tears
