Michael Mcdonald - Tracks Of My Tears lyrics

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