Paper Moon Lyrics

Paper Moon - Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong

Say it's only a paper moon

Sailing over a cardboard sea

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed in me

Yes it's only a canvas sky

Hanging over a muslin tree

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed 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 Barnum and Bailey world

Just as phony as it can be

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed in me

Say it's only a paper moon

Sailing over a cardboard sea

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed in me

Yes it's only a canvas sky

Hanging over a muslin tree

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed 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 Barnum and Bailey world

Just as phony as it can be

But it wouldn't be make believe

If you believed in me

But it wouldn't be make believe believe

 

If you believed in me
