The Tracks Of My Tears (Album Version)

Michael Mcdonald Tracks of My Tears

People say I'm the life of a party

'Cause I tell a joke or two

Although I maybe laughin' 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

When you're gone if you see me with another girl

Acting like I'm havin' fun

Although she may be cute she's just a substitute girl

'Cause 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 no no baby

Outside I've been masquerading

Outside my hope is fading

Outside since you put me down

My smile is my make up

I wear since my break up with you

People say I'm the life of the party

'Cause I tell a joke or two

Although I maybe laughin' loud and hearty

Deep inside I'm blue

Since you're gone if you see me with another girl

Actin' like I'm havin' fun

Although she may be cute she's just a substitute

You're the permanent one

People say I'm the life of the party

'Cause I tell a joke or two

Although I maybe laughin' loud and hearty

Deep inside I'm blue

Since you're gone if you see me with another girl

Actin' like I'm havin' fun

Although she may be cute she's just a substitute

You're the permanent one
