Lyrics for Song: It's Only A Paper Moon
Lyrics for Album: Centennial Celebration [2009]



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


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





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


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





It's phony it's plain to see


How happy I would be


If you believed in me
