Artist/Band: Jim Reeves
Lyrics for Song: It's Only a Paper Moon
Lyrics for Album: Gentleman Jim: Memories Are Made of This [BMG/RCA] [2004]



(E.Y. Harburg - Harold Arlen)



It's only a paper moon,

Sailing over a cardboard sea.

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed in me.



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.

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.



--- Instrumental ---



Without your love,

It's a honky tonk parade.

Without your love,

It's just 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.



(If you believed)

(If you believed)

(If you believed in me)...
