Billy Rose – E.Y Harburg – Harold Arlen, arr. C. Hine
You’re all o’ the world tuh me my love you make
ev ‘ry thing so fine oh ya’ make my dream
reality and with you life is divine
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 hangin’ 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
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 I had all your love.
It’s not make believe I’ve got all your love.
