The Tracks Of My Tears - Dolly Parton

Now, people say I’m the life of the party

'Cause I’ll tell a joke or two.

Although I might be laughin' loud and hearty,

Deep down inside I’m blue.

So take a good look at my face

You’ll see my smile looks out of place.

If you’ll look closer,

It’s easy to trace the tracks of my tears.

I need you, need you.

But since you left me if you see me with another guy,

Seemin' like I’m havin' fun.

He might look good it’s true

But he’s a substitute 'cause you were the perfect 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, I need you.

Outside I’m masqueradin',

'Cause inside my hope is fading.

Like a clown since you put me down,

And my smile is my makeup I wear since my break up with you.

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.

Oh, just 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.
