Tracks of My Tears

Tracks Of My Tears - Aretha Franklin

People say I'm the life of the party

Because I tell a joke or two

Well, although I may be laughing

loud and hearty

Deep inside I'm blue

So take a good look at my face

You'll see my smile seems out of place

And if you look closer,

it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears,

I need you, need you

Since you left,

if you see me with someone else

Acting like I'm having big fun

Well, although he may look fine

He's not a really man,

you're the only one

So take a good look at my face

You'll see my smile seems out of place

And if you look closer,

it's easy to trace

The tracks of my tears,

I'm masquerading,

my hope is fading

Since you put me down

My smile is my make up

I wear since my break up with you

Baby, take just one good look at my face

You'll see that my smile seems out of place

And if you look closer,

it's so easy to trace

The tracks of my tears

Oh baby,

take just one look at my face

You'll see that my smile is out of place

And if you look closer,

easy to trace

The tracks of those tears, oh

Oh, look at my face

You'll see that my smile

seems out of place

And if you look closer
