I nev-er feel a thing is real
When I'm a-way from you
Out of your em-brace
The world's a tem-po-ra-ry par-king place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bub-ble for a min-ute
Mmm, mm
You smile, the bub-ble has a rain-bow in it
REFRAIN
Say, it's on-ly a pa-per moon
Sail-ing o-ver a card-board sea
But it would-n't be make be-lieve
If you be-lieved in me
Yes, it's only a can-vas sky
Hang-ing o-ver a mus-lin tree
But it would-n't be make be-lieve
If you be-lieved in me
With-out your love
It's a hon-ky-tonk pa-rade
With-out your love
It's a mel-o-dy played in a pen-ny ar-cade
It's a bar-num and bai-ley world
Just as phon-y as it can be
But it would-n't be make be-lieve
If you be-lieved in me
