Lyrics

[Verse 1] Why did I have to see you again I'm just getting over you and me It's too soon to be Standing this close to you at a party Laughing, pretending to be glad Called a spade a spade 'Cause inside the joke That you're telling No one is laughing Even you let me in on it What's so funny? [Chorus] You cannot laugh alone That smile is not your own Your love was crackerjack A prize in every bag A sugarcoated love What dreams are made out of A myth, a fantasy A package C.O.D That no one will identify or pay for A mystery left sitting on your front door [Verse 2] Throw it out of your mind What you're thinking Isn't worth wasting our time What's the point in it? Pretty eyes, softer tears Strike a pose and push your hair Back behind your ears Sit up in your chair like a lady [Chorus] You cannot laugh alone That smile is not your own Your love was crackerjack It's a prize in every bag A sugarcoated love What dreams are made out of A myth, a fantasy A package C.O.D Your love was crackerjack It's a prize Your love was crackerjack Your love was crackerjack Oh, baby 'Cause your love was crackerjack
