It ’s  Only  A  Paper  Moon
Its  only  a  paper  moon
Sailing  over  a  cardboard  sea
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
If  you  believed  in  me
Its  only  a  canvas  sky
Hanging  over  a  muslin  tree
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
If  you  believed  in  me
Without  your  love
Its  a  honky-tonk  parade
Without  your  love
Its  a  melody  played  in  a  penny  arcade
Its  a  Barnum  and  Bailey  world
Just  as  phony  as  it  can  be
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
If  you  believed  in  me
Its  only  a  canvas  sky
Hanging  over  a  muslin  tree
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
If  you  believed  in  me
Without  your  love
Its  a  honky-tonk  parade
Without  your  love
Its  a  melody  played  in  a  penny  arcade
Its  a  Barnum  and  Bailey  world
Just  as  phony  as  it  can  be
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
But  it  wouldnt  be  make-believe
If  you  believed  in  me
