Music

Music expresses that which can not be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.
-Victor Hugo-



Been listening to a lot of music lately...

Sing it Smokey...

Now if there's a smile 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

But don't let my glad expression

Give you the wrong impression

'Cause really I'm sad, oh I'm sadder than sad
Well I'm hurt and I want you so bad

Like a clown I appear to be glad, ooh yeah


Well 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

The tears of a clown when there's no one around


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, oh I need you so

Look I'm hurt and I want you to know

For others I put on a show


Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid

Smiling in the crowd I try

But in a lonely room I cry

The tears of a clown
When there's noone around


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

Cos really I'm sad
