Les paroles


1. TEARS OF A CLOWN



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, sad, sad, oh I'm sadder than sad
Darling I'm hurtin 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
Oh yeah, baby baby

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
Cause I need 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 no one around, oh yeah, baby baby

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

The tears of a clown
Yeah the tears of a clown
When there's no one around
Oh baby baby






2. WAKE UP CALL




This is your wake up call... young hearts be free

Get up, get on, get out about and shout it
Tell 'em all you're dressed and on your way
Oh there's absolutely no doubt about it
This is your wake up call
You're gonna miss it all

Am I the only one out there that's listening
Cos it's such a lovely noise that I can hear
Eyes are opening up to all around them
This is their wake up call
They're gonna miss it all

Can you feel what's happening here
Everything is changing all around you
It's in the air, electricity
Everybody, yes everybody's waking up
Good morning to you

You're not the only one out there who's running
But the man who's sitting next to you's asleep
So pick him up and shake him till he hears you
This is his wake up call
He's gonna miss it all

Can you feel what's happening here
Everything is changing all around you
It's in the air, electricity
Everybody, yes everybody's waking up
Good morning to you

Those who've done all they can do sleep easy
Those that turn away, they sleep alone
But there's no doubt about it absolutely
This is a wake up call
We 're gonna miss it all

This is your wake up call
This is your wake up call
This is your wake up call
You're gonna miss it
You're gonna miss it all






3. HEY,NOW SUNSHINE



Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine Running at the door, she stops to brush her hair, Glancing up and down at her reflection
Did she look away, just in case he looked away? She'd Thought of some excuse for conversation
She knew that he was cure, she seen him yesterday, Talking and laughing with his sister,

How long was he staying, would he still be there, she Satisfied herself with this, that you should only stare.

Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine All the night before his man was everywhere, but she Didn't know exactly what they call him
Inventing stories to pass away the time until she find a Courage to confront him

Managing to mention him in everything she said, She knew She never felt like this before
How long was he staying, would he still be there, she Satisfied herself with this, that you should only stare.

Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine In a second her heart was broken, she couldn't believe Her eyes, her pulse was beating faster every minute
Looking out the window, the car was driving off, his Holiday was over, the romance with it...

Running out the door, tears in her eyes, she didn't know What to say or what to do,
Did he leave an adress, will he be back next year?? Slowly the sunshine started broking through...

Hey now, hey now, seems we're looking ooh some sunshine..
