It's Only A Paper Moon Lyrics - Tribute To Frank Sinatra: Strangers In The Night - Bert Kaempfert

Say, it's only a paper moon 

Sailing over a cardboard sea 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believed in me 

Yes, it's only a canvas sky 

Hanging over a muslin tree 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believed 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 believed in me 

Say, it's only a paper moon 

Sailing over a cardboard sea 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believed in me 

Yes, it's only a canvas sky 

Hanging over a muslin tree 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believed 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 believed in me 

It's phony it's plain to see 

How happy I would be 

If you believed in me
