Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world is just
A temporary parking place
[Verse 2]
Ooh, a bubble for a minute
Ooh, you smile
The bubble has rainbow in it
[Verse 3]
It's only a paper moon
Hanging over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
It's only a canvas sky
Floating over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
[Verse 4]
'Cause without, without your love
It's a honky tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
[Verse 5]
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
It's just as phoney, just as phoney as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believe in me
[Verse 6]
Well, it wouldn't be wouldn't be
Well, it wouldn't be make-believe
If you
Believe in me
Written by: Billy Rose, E.Y. "Yip" Harburg, Harold Arlen
