nnenna freelon - tears of a clown (live) lyrics
[verse 1]
now if there’s a smile on my face
it’s only there tryin’ to fool the public
but when it comes down to foolin’ you
now honey that’s quite a different subject
don’t let my glad expression
give you the wrong impression
really i’m sad, mm, sadder than sad
you’re gone and i’m hurtin’ so bad
like a clown i pretend to be glad
[chorus]
now there’s some sad things known to man
but ain’t too much sadder than the tears of a clown
when there’s no one around
[verse 2]
now if i appear to be carefree
it’s only to camouflage my sadness
in order to shield my pride i try
to cover this hurt with a show of gladness
but don’t let my show convince you
that i’ve been happy since you
decided to go, i need you so
i’m hurt, hurt and i want you to know
for others i put on a show
[chorus]
now there’s some sad things known to man
but ain’t too much sadder than the tears of a clown
when there’s no one around
[scatting]
[bridge]
just like pagliacci did
i try to keep my sadness hid
smiling in the public eye
but in my lonely room i cry
tears of a clown
[outro]
if there’s a smile on my face
don’t let my glad expression
give you, you, you the wrong impression
don’t let this smile i wear
make you think i don’t care
tears of a clown
when there’s no one
when there’s no one
when there’s no one, no one, no one, no one, no one, no one, no one around
if there’s a smile on my face
see me, feel me, touch me, love me, oh
these are the tears of a clown
when i’m all by myself
when i’m all by myself
these are the tears, tears of a clown
thank you, thank you very much
thank you so much
