Paint The Smile On

Paint the smile on

Give me time till the colors dry

Paint the smile on

Paint a picture that tells a lie

I'll keep on smiling, I won't

Satisfy you to see me cry

I'm gonna keep on laughing

Though I'm living a lie, baby

Teardrops will brush away without a trace

Painting the smile on my face

I'll be "best clown" of all the mortal race

Painting the smile on my face

On my face, on my face

No more sorrow

Though the picture's still wet with tears

By tomorrow

When it's dry and the smile appears

Imagine that I'm someone

Happy like it was meant to be

I hope that maybe someday

That that someone is me, baby

Teardrops will brush away without a trace

Painting the smile on my face

I'll be "best clown" of all the mortal race

Painting the smile on my face

On my face, on my face

Paint the smile on

Give me time till the colors dry

Paint the smile on

Paint a picture that tells a lie

No more sorrow (I'm gonna keep on smiling)

Though the picture's still wet with tears

By tomorrow (I'm gonna keep on laughing)

When it's dry and the smile appears

Paint the smile on (I'm gonna keep on smiling)

Give me time till the colors dry

Paint the smile on (I'm gonna keep on laughing)
