Michael McDonald - The Tracks Of My Tears lyrics

rate me

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

[Chorus:]

So take a good look at my face

You'll see my smile looks out of place

Just look closer, it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears

I need you, need you

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

'Cause you're the permanent one

[Chorus]

Outside, I'm masquerading

Inside, my hope is fading

Just a clown, oh yeah since you put me down

My smile is my make-up I wear since my break-up with you
