People say I'm the life of the party

'Cause I tell a joke or two

Although I might be laughing loud and hearty

Deep inside I'm blue



So take a good look at my face

You'll my smile looks out of place

If you look closer it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears



I need you, need you



Since you left me if you see me with another girl

Seeming like I'm having fun

Although she might be cute, she's just a substitute

Because you're the permanent one



So take a good look at my face

You'll see my smile looks out of place

If you look closer it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears



I need you, I need you

I need you, I need you



Outside I'm masquerading, inside my hope is fading

I'm just a clown, just a clown since you put me down

My smile is my makeup I wear since my breakup with you



Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, take a good look at my face

Yeah, you'll see my smile looks out of place

If you look closer it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears



Baby, baby, baby, baby, take a good look at my face

Yeah, you'll see my smile looks out of place

If you look closer it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears, the tracks of my tears

If you look closer it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears
