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, mm, mm, mm

A bubble for a minute

Mmm, mm, mm, mm

You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it



Say, its 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 as phony as it can be

But it wouldn't be make-believe

If you believed in me
