Big Country - Tracks Of My Tears lyrics

People say I'm the life of the party Cause I tell a joke or two And though 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 Since you left me If you see me with another girl Look like I'm having fun Although she might 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, need you, need you (Outside) I'm masquerading (Inside) my love is fading I'm just a clown Since you put me down My smile is my make-up 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 If you look closer it's easy to trace The tracks of my tears
