Tears Of A Clown

Tears Of A Clown:Smokey Robinson And The Miracles. #1 in UK and #1 in USA in 1967. #1. NC Now, if there's a smile up..on my face, It's only there trying to fool the public. But when it comes down to fooling you, Now, honey that's quite a different subject. #2. Don't let my glad expression, Give you the wrong impression. really I'm sad.......Oh, I'm sadder than sad. You're gone and I'm hurting so bad, Like a clown I appear to be glad.. Chorus: Now, they're some sad things known to man, but ain't too much sadder than, the tears of a clown, when there's no one around. #3. Now if I appear to be carefree, It's only to camouflage my sadness. And Honey to shield my pride I try, to cover this hurt with a show of gladness. But don't let my show convince you, that I've been happy since you, decided to go. I need you so, I'm hurt and I want you to know, but for others I put on a show... Chorus: Now, if I appear just like Pagliacci did, I try to keep my sadness hid. Smiling in the public eye, but in my lonely room I cry, the tears of a clown, when there's no one around. #4. Now if there's a smile on my face, don't let my glad expression, give you the wrong impression. Don't let this smile I wear, make you think that I don't care... A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
