People say I'm the life of the party 'Cause I tell a joke or two And although I might be laughing loud and hearty Deep inside I'm blue So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer you'll see the trace Of the tracks of my tears Oh, the tracks of my tears Since you left me, if you see me with another girl And it seems like I'm having fun And although she may be cute, she's just a substitute You're the permanent one So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer you'll see the trace Of the tracks of my tears Oh, the tracks of my tears Outside, I'm masquerading Inside my hope is fading Just a clown since you put me down My smile is just my makeup I wear since my break-up with you So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer you'll see the trace Of the tracks of my tears So take a good look at my face You'll see my smile looks out of place If you look closer you'll see the trace Of the tracks of my tears Oh, the tracks of my tears The tracks of my tears The tracks of my tears The tracks of my tears
