Text: Jim Reeves. It's Only A Paper Moon.
It's only a paper moon sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me
It's 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 Bonnom and Daily World just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me
Without your love
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me
It's 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 Bonnom and Daily World just as phony as it can be
But it wouldn't be make believe if you believe in me
Without your love
Reeves, Jim
