Lyrics
Pick up to six lines to make a card.
It's only a paper moon
Sailin' over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
It's only a canvas sky
Hangin' 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 phoney as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Believe in me
Come, see about me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
And without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
Got to be a Barnum world
Just as phoney as it can be
But it'll never be make-believe
If you believe in me
If you believe in me
If you believe in me
If you believe in me
