"The Tracks Of My Tears" lyrics - BRYAN FERRY

People say I'm the life of the party
'Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I may be laughin' loud and hearty
Deep inside I'm blue

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

I need you, need you

Since you left me
If you see me with another girl
Seemin' like I'm havin' fun
Although she may be cute
She's just a substitute
Because you're the only one

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

I need you, need you

I'm masquerading
My hope is fading
Since you put me down
My smile is my makeup
I wear since my breakup with you

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
