It's Only a Paper Moon Songtext
von Benny Goodman
It's Only a Paper Moon Songtext
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 a phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me
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 a phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make believe
If you believed in me
