It's Only A Paper Moon Lyrics - Marvin Gaye

It is only a paper moon 

Sailing over a cardboard sea 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believe in me 

It is only a canvas sky 

Hanging over a muslin tree 

But it wouldn't be make-believe 

If you believe 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 believe in me 

Without your love 

It's a honky-tonk parade 

Without your love 

It's a melody played 

In a penny arcade
