Lyrics
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 know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Oh I need you, (need you)
Need you (need you)
Since you left me if you see me with another guy
Looking like I'm having fun
Although he might be cute he's just a substitute
Because you're the permanent one
So take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
(Outside) I'm masquerading
(Inside) My hope is fading
(I'm just a clown) Since you put me down
My smile is my make-up, I wear since my break-up with you
Baby take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
Woah baby, take a good look at my face
You know my smile looks out of place
If you look closer it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
