It's only a paper moon
just as phony as it can be
but it wouldn't be make-believe
if you believed in me
I don't like bright light
Sometimes I'm afraid of
showing my real things
I don't like you to come close
Please stay
a little bit away from me
Why are you still
looking for the truth
Can't you see the only things
I let you see
It's only a paper moon
just as phony as it can be
but it wouldn't be make-believe
if you believed in me
I don't want bad feeling
Sometimes I can be in happy mood
with small things
I don't want your sympathy
Please show
a little bit of your kindness
Why are you still
looking for the truth
Can't you see the only things
I let you see
It's only a paper moon
just as phony as it can be
but it wouldn't be make-believe
if you believed in me
It's only a paper moon
just as phony as it can be
but it wouldn't be make-believe
if you believed in me
