Lyrics It Looks Like I’m the Clown Again - The Drifters

Did you ever get real hurt?
And tell yourself
You′ll never love again
I got my fingers burnt
And thinking back I know
I felt that way
I gave you everything nevertheless
Staking everything on this time
Then I saw you with him
And now I'm in a mess

And it
It looks like I′m the clown again
I'm the clown again
Ain't it strange?
How the star of the show?
Is always the last to know?
And it
It looks like I′m the fool again
I′m the fool again
I thought the rumours were only lies
And here I am a clown in the whole world's eyes

I thought at long, long last
I maybe had a chance of happiness
You only talked of love
To laugh at me behind my back I guess
Believin′ in someone was all such a waste
I thought I'd put the hurt behind me
And here I am now with egg on my face

And it
It looks like I′m the clown again
I'm the clown again
Ain′t it strange?
How the star of the show?
Is always the last to know?
And it
It looks like I'm the fool again
I'm the fool again
I thought the rumours were only lies
And here I am a clown in the whole world′s eyes

All I wanted was to hide away from all the pain
You brought it all back again now what can I do

And it
It looks like I′m the clown again
I'm the clown again
Ain′t it strange?
How the star of the show?
Is always the last to know?
And it
It looks like I'm the fool again
I′m the fool again
I thought the rumours were only lies
And here I am a clown in the whole world's eyes.
