Sammi Smith Lyrics
"Heart of a Clown"

(Steve Nelson - Jack Rollins - Francis Kane)

If I had the heart of a clown
I'd smile every time you made me blue
And if I had the heart of a clown
You wouldn't see me cry the way I do.

And I'd paint a smile upon my face each time you hurt me so
My arms may long for your embrace you would never know
And I'd smile as my dream world tumbled down
If I had the heart of a clown.

--- Instrumental ---

And I'd paint a smile upon my face each time you hurt me so
My arms may long for your embrace you would never know
And I'd smile as my dream world tumbled down
If I had the heart of a clown...
