Lyric Paper Moon

Writers: Rose/Harburg/Arlen
I never feel a thing is real
When I m away from you
Out of your embrace
The world s a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, its 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
