LYRICS FOR "The Tracks of My Tears"

Now people say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I'll tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing loud and hearty
Deep down 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, I need you
But since you left, if you see me with another guy
Seeming like I'm having fun
He might look good, it's true but he's a substitute
'Cause you were the perfect 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, I need you

Outside, I'm masquerading
'Cause inside my hope is fading
Like a clown since you put me down
And my smile is my makeup
I wear since my breakup with you

Stop, 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

Just 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

Just take a, 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

Just take a good look at my face
You'll see my smile looks out of place
