Lyrics

People say I'm the life of the party 'Cause I tell a joke or two, ha Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Baby, don't you know, deep inside I'm blue So take a good look (Good look, look at my face) Don't you know that my smile (My smile sho'nuff out of place) Just a little bit closer, baby (Closer, easy to trace) The tracks of my tears (Tears), baby (Tears) Baby, baby, baby (Need you), I need you, (need you), ooh Since you left me if you see me with another guy Seeming like I'm having fun Although he might be cute He's just a substitute 'Cause, baby, you're the only one So take a good look (Good look, look at my face) Can't you see that my smile, yes it is, It's out of place (My smile, sho'nuff out of place) Just a little bit closer, it's easy to trace (Closer, easy to trace) The tracks of my tears (Tears), baby (Tears) Baby, baby, baby I need you, (Need you), need you, baby (need you) Whoa-oh-oh-whoa (Whoa-oh-oh-whoa) Oh yeah (Oh yeah) (Outside) Outside I'm masquerading (Inside) Inside my hope is fading (I'm just a clown) 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 (Good look, look at my face) Can't you see that my smile, oh, yes it is (My smile, sho'nuff out of place) Just a little bit closer, it's easy to trace (Closer, easy to trace) The tracks of my tears (Tears), baby (Tears) Baby, baby, baby Take a look, take a look (Take a look, take a good look, look at my face) Don't you know that my smile (Take a look, take a good look, it's out of place) Just a little bit (Take a look, take a good look, easy to trace) You'll see the tracks of my tears (Tears), baby (Tears) Baby, baby, baby Take a look, Take a look (Take a look, take a good look, look at my face) Don't you know that my smile...
