Paroles de The tears of a clown

Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's quite a different subject

But don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really i'm sad, oh sadder than sad
You're gone and i'm hurting so bad
Like a clown i pretend to be glad

Now there's some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around

Oh yeah baby, now if i appear to be carefree
It's only to camouflage my sadness
In order to shield my pride i try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness

But don't let my show convince you
That i've been happy since you decided to go
Oh, i need you so, i'm hurt and i want you to know
But for others i put on a show

Now there's some sad things known to man
But ain't too much sadder than
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around, oh yeah

Just like pagliacci did
I try to keep my sadness hid
Smiling in the public eye
But in my lonely room i cry
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around

Oh, yeah baby
Now if there's a smile upon my face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don't let the smile i wear
Make you think that i don't care
Really i'm sad i'm hurting so bad
