Maureen McGovern - It's Only a Paper Moon lyrics

Say, it's 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

But it wouldn't be make-believe

If you believed in me
