The great pretender


Oh-oh, yes i'm the great pretender
pretending that i'm doing well
my need is such i pretend too much
i'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh-oh, yes i'm the great pretender
adrift in a world of my own
i've played the game but to my real shame
you've left me to grieve all alone
Too real is this feeling of make-believe
too real when i feel what my heart can't conceal
Yes i'm the great pretender
just laughin' and gay like a clown
i seem to be what i'm not, you see
i'm wearing my heart like a crown
pretending that you're still around
Too real is this feeling of make-believe
too real when i feel what my heart can't conceal
Yes i'm the great pretender
just laughin' and gay like a clown
i seem to be what i'm not, you see
i'm wearing my heart like a crown
pretending that you're still around
