Tracks Of My Tears (2012 Reissue Bonus Track)

(album: The Crossing - 1983)

People say I'm the life of the party
Cause I tell a joke or two
And though I might be laughing
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, need you, need you
Since you left me
If you see me with another girl
Look like I'm having fun
Although she might be cute
She's just a substitute
Because 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
I need you, need you, need you
(Outside) I'm masquerading
(Inside) my love 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
Baby 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
