People say I'm the life of the pary
'Cause I make a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I am 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 somebody else
Seems like I'm having fun
Although they might be cute
There's no substitute
'Cause you're the only 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
(Need you)

Outside I'm masquerading
Inside my hope is fading
Just a clown
Since you put me down
My smile is my make up 
I wear since my break up with you

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

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
