the 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

So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

Since you left me if you see me with another girl
See me like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute, she's just a substitute
Because you're the permanent one

So take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
If you still look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears, I need you, need you

Outside, I'm masquerading
Inside my heart is fading
Just a clown, since you put me down
My smile is my makeup
I wear since my breakup with you

Baby, take a good look at my face
See my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
