Lyrics

People say I'm the life of the party 'Cause I tell a joke or two Although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside, I'm blue So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer, it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears I need you, need you Need you, need you Since you left me, if you see me with another girl Seeming like I'm having fun Although she may be cute She's just a substitute because you're the permanent one So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look little bit closer, it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears I need you (need you) Need you (need you) Outside, I'm masquerading Inside, my hope is fading Just a clown, ooh yeah Since you put me down My smile is my makeup I wear since my break-up with you Baby take a good look at my face You'll see my smile, looks out of place Yeah, just a closer, it's easy to trace Oh, the tracks of my tears Baby, baby, baby, baby take a good look at my face You'll see my smile, looks out of place You look little bit closer, it's easy to trace Yeah, the tracks of my tears
