People say I'm the life party cause I tell a joke or two
I might be smiling
But there's just no denying
The pain I'm going through
So take a good look at my face
And know regardless of what I say
That in place of my smile there's
The tracks of my tears

There was a time I thought I was in love with another girl
Fooled myself to believing she was my world
Although she might be cute
She was just a substitute
Because when all is said and done
You're my perfect one
So take a good look at my face
And tell me you leaving was mistake
Since you left me all alone here
All I have are the tracks of my tears

I need you
Please believe its true
I've never needed anyone more
You are the only one my heart cries for
Every morning I wake up hoping you will be here
And beg for you to come back when I realize you aren't there

Cupid, draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me, nobody but me
Cupid, please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Why can't you see
That you're the only one for me
I miss you
What am I to do
So next time you see me, look closer
And you will see the tracks of my tears
