[Verse 1]
People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I may be laughing loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue
[Chorus]
So take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
[Post-Chorus]
I need you, need you
[Verse 2]
If you see me with another girl
Acting like I'm having fun
Although she may be cute
She's just a substitute
Girl, you're the permanent one
[Chorus]
Ah, take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
Now look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
[Bridge]
Outside, I'm masquerading
Inside, my hope is fading
I'm just a clown
Since you put me down
My smile is my make-up
I wear since my break-up with you
[Chorus]
Baby, baby
Take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, baby
Take a good look at my face
You see my smile looks out of place
Just look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
[Chorus]
Baby, baby, baby
Take a good look at this face
My smile looks out of place
Look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears
[Outro]
Baby, baby, baby
