Lyrics Natalie Cole – Paper Moon
Text:
I never feel a thing is real
When I’m away from you
Out of your embrace
The world’s a temporary parking place
Mmm… A bubble for a minute
Mmm… you smile
The bubble has a rainbow in it
Mmm… you smile
The bubble has a rainbow in it
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 tank parade
With out your love
It’s a melody played in a penny arcade
It’s a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn’t be make believe
If you believed in me, oh…
scat
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 as phony as it can be
But it wouldn’t be make believe
If you believed in me
It’s a melody played in a penny arcade
It’s a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn’t be make believe
If you believed in me
