The Tracks of My Tears

Smokey Robinson, Motown

The Tracks of My Tears
Smokey Robinson, Motown
People say I’m the life of the party
Cause I tell a joke or two
Although I might be laughing 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 having fun
Although she may be cute
She’s just a substitute’
Because you’re the permanent one

Chorus

Outside, I’m masquerading
Inside, my heart is fading
I’m just a clown
Ooh yeah, since you put me down
My smile is my make-up
I wear since my break-up with you

Chorus (Baby, baby, baby) x2
