Johnny Rivers The Tracks of My Tears
THE TRACKS OF MY TEARS - Johnny Rivers
(W. Robinson / M. Tarplin / W. Moore)
People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two.
Although I may be laughin� loud and hearty,
Deep inside I'm blue.
So take a good look at my face.
You 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
If you see me with another girl,
Actin� like I'm havin� fun,
Although she may be cute,
She's just a substitute,
Girl, you're the permanent one.
Ah, take a good look at my face.
You see my smile looks out of place.
Now look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears.
Outside, I'm masqueradin�
Inside, my hope is fadin�.
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, baby, take a good look at my face.
You see my smile looks out of place.
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears.
Baby, baby, baby, take a good look at my face.
You see my smile looks out of place.
Just look closer, it's easy to trace.
The tracks of my tears.
Baby, baby, baby, take a good look at this face.
My smile looks out of place.
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears.
