Everybody Loves a Clown

I joke around at a party when you are there
If you wonder why this clown is cryin'
It's not easy to be in love, you see
Of a clown with a broken heart

A clown has feelings, too

Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start
Guess I'll be the guy who plays the part
Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start

Look a little closer, inside I'm dyin'
Everybody loves a clown, so why can't you?
But you don't laugh, you just go home runnin'
They all laugh when they see me comin'
Yes, I'm a clown but I don't wanna be
When you're a clown like me'

Why can'tcha see the other side of me?
I don't know how to say that I love you
Dreamin' of your love and not knowin' where to start
'Cause you would smile and say, "Tell a joke or two"

But you don't laugh, you don't look, you just don't care
