Tears Of A Clown — текст песни (Smokey Robinson and The Miracles)

Now if there`s a smile on my face
It`s only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that`s quite a different subject

But don`t let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Cos really I`m sad, Oh I`m sadder than sad
Well I`m hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad ooh yeah

CHORUS:

Well they`re some sad things known to man
But ain`t too much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there`s noone around
Oh yeah, baby baby, oh yeah baby baby

Now if I appear to be carefree
It`s only to camouflage my sadness
And honey to shield my pride I try
To cover this hurt with a show of gladness
But don`t let my show convince you
That I`ve been happy since you
Cos I need to go, oh I need you so
Look I`m hurt and I want you to know
For others I put on a show ...CHORUS

Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
When there`s noone around, oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there`s a smile on my face
Don`t let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don`t let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don`t care
Cos really I`m sad...
