It's Only a Paper Moon Songtext
von Bobby Darin

It′s only a paper moon
Sailin' over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn′t be make-believe
If you believed in me

It's only a canvas sky
Hangin' 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 & Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

Believe in me
Come see about me

Without your love
It′s a honky-tonk parade
And without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade

Got... to be a Barnum world
Just as phony as it can be
But it′ll never be make-believe
If you believe in me

If you believe in me
If you believe in me
If you... believe... in me
