Tears Of A Clown
 (Smith/Harris)

All alone in a crowded room
He tries to force a smile
The smile it beamed or so it seemed

But never reached the eyes, disguise
Masquerading as the funny man
Do they despise

The false smile maketh of the man
Glass empty or half full
Try to make some sense or sorrows drown

All looks well on the outside
Underneath the solemn truth
There´s something that inside has died

Tomorrow comes tomorrow goes
But the cloud remains the same
Wonder why he´s feeling down
Tears of a clown

Maybe it´s all just for the best
Lay his weary head to rest
Was forever feeling drowned
Tears of a clown

Who motivates the motivator
Facade it has to go
He knows it sooner or later
Smile for cameras all ok
But tomorrow is another day
He must get through

He had a longer way to run
Or so the story goes
Life full of fun where did it go

We saw the sadness in his eyes
It came as no surprise
And now of course we´ll never know

Tears of a clown...

(Smith/Harris)
