It's Only A Paper Moon
Frank Sinatra
Words by Billy Rose and E. Y. Harburg
Music by Harold Arlen
from the album Sinatra's Swingin' Session and More-
Capitol cassette C4-46573
Recorded on 8/31/60
It is only a paper moon
Sailin' 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
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
