(Have I Stayed) Too Long At The Fair/Look At That Face Lyrics

Artist: Barbra Streisand
Album: Just For The Record

I wanted the music to play on forever,
Have I stayed to long at the fair?
I wanted the clown to be constantly clever,
Have I stayed to long at the fair?
Allow me blue ribbons to tie up my hair,
But I couldn't find anybody to care.

The merry-go-round is beginning to slow down,
Have I stayed too long at the fair,
There is nothing to win,
And there's no one to want me,
Save me!

Look at that face just look at it!
Look at that fabulous face of yours,
I knew first look I took at it,
This was the face that the world adores,
Look at those eyes,
As wise and as deep as the sea,
Look at that nose,
It shows what a nose should be!
As for your smile, it's lyrical
Friendly and warm as a summer day,
Your face is just a miracle,
Where could I ever find words to say
The way that it makes me happy,
Whatever the time or place,
I will find in no book,
I will find when I love,
I'll go far!

If my ears serve me correctly, I believe the line is: "Oh Mother dear you must be very proud
Your little girl IN GINGHAM is so far above the crowd"
For my "momey," this song is
Barbra's BEST INTERPRETATION EVER!
