verse 1
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, I need you, yeah
verse 2
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 closer it's easy to trace the tracks of my tears
I need you, I need you
Bridge
Outside I'm masquerading, inside my hope is fading
Just a clown yeah since you put me down
My smile is my makeup I wear since my breakup with you, oh yeah
Just take a good look at my face, you'll see my smile looks out of place
And if you look closer it's easy to trace the tracks of my tears
Oh just take a good look at my face, yeah
You'll see my smile looks out of place
And if you look closer, closer you see it's just the trace of my
The tracks of my tears
