It is only a paper moon
Hanging over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn''t be make-believe
If you believed in me
It is only a canvas sky
Saling 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
on 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
