I never feel a thing is real when I'm away from you
Out of your embrace, the world's 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, it's only a paper moon sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe if you believe in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky, hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe if you believe in me
Without your love, it's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love, it's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world, just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe, if you believe in me.
