The Great Pretender

Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender

Pretendin' that I'm doin' well

My need is such, I pretend too much

I'm lonely, but no one can tell

Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender

Adrift in a world of my own

I play the game, but to my real shame

You left me to dream all alone

Too real is this feeling of make believe

Too real, what I feel, what my heart can't conceal

Oh, 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

Pretendin' that you're still around

Too real is this feeling of make believe

Too real, what I feel, what my heart can't conceal

Oh, 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

Pretendin' that you're still around

Pretending that you're still around

Pretending that you're still around
