Yes, I'm smiling.

Everytime you pass me by.

I know you wonder, why I never cry.

But let me tell you, happiness. (Happiness)

My happiness (Happiness)

Is just a camouflage. (Camouflage)

They call me the joker. (I'm a joker)

'Cause I... I always play.

But I'm just a clown. (I'm a clown)

'Cause I'm really not that way.

'Cause all my happiness, (Happiness)

My happiness (Happiness)

Oh, is just a camouflage.

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying)

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying)

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying)

Wee-Ooo (Hey, hey, hey)

[Instrumental]

They call me the joker. (The joker)

'Cause I... I always play.

But I'm just a clown. (I'm just a clown)

'Cause I'm really not that way.

'Cause all my happiness, (Happiness)

My happiness (Happiness)

Oh, is just a camouflage.

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) I love you.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Oh, yes I do.

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) Ooo, baby.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Ooo, baby.

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) I gotta broken heart.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I've got a broken heart.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Just a care of love.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Just a care of love.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I gotta broken heart.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) I've got a broken heart.

(Open your eyes and see I'm crying) Just a care of love.

(Open your eyes and see I'm dying) Ooo
