Ella Fitzgerald
Love, You’re Just a Laugh
[Verse 1]
Oh, love, you're just a laugh
And this smile I wear is the aftermath
You no longer care, love, you're just a laugh
But the joke is on me
[Verse 2]
Ah, it's so funny, how could you go against
Things I still believe, I can hear you yet
Laughing up your sleeve, love, you're just a laugh
But the joke is on me
[Bridge]
How could you employ my love
And then destroy my love when you were through with me?
You were only biding time
Until somebody new could be made a fool by you
[Verse 3]
And what I thought would last
Faded with a frown, we two wеre the cast
Cupid played thе clown, love, you're just a laugh
But the joke is on me
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
How could you employ my love
And then destroy my love when you were through with me?
You were only biding time
Until somebody new could be made a fool by you
[Verse 4]
Oh, what I thought would last
Faded with a frown, we two were the cast
Cupid played the clown, love, you're just a laugh
But the joke is on me
