Sometimes I sit at home
And wonder how it'd be if he had loved me
Truly loved me
I learned a while ago that kind of thing
Never happens for me
And so i go around and just pretend
Love is not for me
I play the circus-clown to all my friends
Make them laugh and they won´t see
That you never let'em see you sweat
You don't want them to think
The pain runs deep
Lord knows it's killing me

So I put on my make-up
Put a smile on my face
And if anyone asks me
Everything is okay
I'm laughing cause no one
Knows the joke is on me
Cause I'm dying inside
With my pride and a smile
On my face
On my face

Singing la la la...

Sometimes I sit at home
By the phone hoping he might call me
But he don't call me
But then I realize
Dreams come true aren't for girls like me
Not like me
And so I go around with my head up
Like it ain't no thing
And when the boys are around with all my friends
I'm into other things
Because you never let them see you sweat
Don't want them to think the pain runs deep
Lord knows it's killing me

So i put on my make-up...

It's not an easy (thing)
Sometimes it's hard to (face the truth)
It's not the life that I would choose (that I would choose)
But what else can I do?
If he don't love me
If he don't want me
I'm not about to sit around
Let myself go

So I put on my make-up...

Singing la la la la...
