I never feel a thing is real
When Im away from you
Out of your embrace
The worlds a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, its only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, its only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
Its a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
Its a melody played in a penny arcade
Its a barnum and bailey world
Just as phony as it can be
But it wouldnt be make-believe
If you believed in me
