Tears Of A Clown
Now if there's a smile on my face
It's only there trying to
fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now honey that's
quite a different subject
But don't let my glad expression
Give you the
wrong impression
'Cause really I'm sad, Oh I'm sadder than sad
Well I'm
hurt and I want you so bad
Like a clown I appear to be glad ooh yeah
Well they're some sad things known to man
But ain't too
much sadder than
The tears of a clown when there's no one around
Oh yeah,
baby baby, oh yeah baby baby
Now if I appear to be carefree
It's only to
camouflage my sadness
And honey 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
'Cause I need to go, oh I need you so
Look I'm hurt
and I want you to know
For others I put on a show ...
Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Smiling in the crowd I try
But in a lonely room I cry
The tears of a clown
When there's no one around, oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there's a smile on my
face
Don't let my glad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don't
let this smile I wear
Make you think that I don't care
The Tracks Of My Tears
People say I'm the life of the party
Because 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..
I need you,
need you
Since you left me if you see me with another girl
Seeming 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 look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my
tears..
I need you, need you
Outside I'm masquerading
Inside my hope is
fading
Just a clown oh yeah
Since you put me down
My smile is my make
up
I wear since my break up with you..
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
Doggone Right
You make me feel just like I'm the luckiest man to ever live
Cause all the love one man could possibly get, honey you gave
In your voice,
soft and low there's a little something
That lets me know
If you took your
heart and made it mine
I would be true till the end of time
Oh yeah,
doggone right
When I am sad oh you take the time to be concerned
It makes
a man feel so good to know that his love is being returned
Eenie meenie minie
mo
Love is a guessing game I know
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
But I've got to win cause it's you that I choose
It's you that I choose
Doggone right, doggone right oh baby
If you think I'm gonna stay let nobody
take my love away
And your doggone right oh baby
You brighten up baby each and every day that I have to face
And if the sunshine don't shine
You smile is there to take it's place
Smooth and warm tender touch
Letting me know that it means so much
To be
loved by somebody who is just as much in love with you
Oh yeah, doggone right
When I am sad oh you take the time to be concerned
It makes a man feel so
good to know that his love is being returned
Eenie meenie minie mo
Love is
a guessing game I know
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose
But I've got
to win cause it's you that I choose
It's you that I choose
Doggone right,
doggone right
Said you're doggone right, oh baby
If you think I'm gonna
stay
Let nobody take my love away
And your doggone right oh baby
Here I Go Again
Okay-a Here I Go Again? Here I Go Again!
Here I Go Again,

You got it-ah-hm
Hooo-hooo-ooo
Ah that was beautiful who said that?
Saw you there, and your laughter seemed to fill the air
Ah

A scent like perfume from your lovely hair
A scent that I, I, I do-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo adore
Um my heart
said to me
Don't walk head on into misery
Hey with your eyes wide open
can't you see?
A hurts in store just like before
Ooooh-ho but here I go again walking into love
Here I go
again never thinking of
Danger that might exist
Disregarding all of this just for you
Wooo I ignore the
detour sign
I wont stop until you're mine
I'm past the point of no return baby
You walk by and I said to me, myself and I-yi-I
Now weve
got to give it one more try-I
I know somehow the time is ri-ight right now-ow
Oh-whoa-oh

Point It Out
Point it out, point it out to me
Point it out, this I've
got to see
You're the one that I'm crazy for
And everday it seems I
love you more and more
Now if there's some reason why I shouldn't love you
The way that I do with a love that is true
So go on and
Point it out girl,
point it out to me
Though I doubt, it could ever be
Loves a hallway with
so many doors
Which one did I go through that made me yours?
I want to close it up and never again
Leave from within to
go back where I've been
So come on and
Point it out to me
Lock it up
throw away the key
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah-yeah
That magic somewhere only lovers know
That's where I want for you and me to go
A life of happiness is guaranteed
All that we need is love to succeed
So let me in
Point it out ooo yeah point it out to you-hoo
Show your love yeah, girl like you never knew
Point it out oh baby now point
it out to me
Gonna show your lovin
Satisfaction
Satisfaction,
That means,
Different strokes for
different folks,
Oh yeah.
Now to the man who who's scaled the mountain high,
Sky.
Oh, but having a baby with me, baby,
Is satisfaction
enough for me.
Oh, and holding him tightly by me, mightily,
That's
satisfaction enough for me.
Ohhh, satisfaction,
Oh yeah,
Life is so,
To each
his own.
Well now your satisfaction now,
May be,
Anything from
A to Z,
Your mind is free.
Uh huh.
Oh and satisfaction,
Can't be classified,
Oh ho.
It
all depends on,
What you feel inside.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Ohhh, how can I satisfy,
All of my baby's dreams?
And
keep her from seekin',
Some other means,
Of excitement,
And
relaxation?
I want to be,
What she needs.
In every phase of life,
And every situation.
