People say I'm the life of the party Because I tell a joke or two Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue Outside I'm masquerading Inside my hope is fading Just a clown oh yeah Since you put me down My smile is my make up I wear since my break up with you.. I need you, need you 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.. Since you left me if you see me with somebody else Seems like I'm having fun Although they may be cute They're no substitute Because you're the only 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, need you 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, need you
