Oh yes, I'm the Great Pretender,
Pretending I'm doing 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've left me to dream all alone.
Too real is this feeling of make believe,
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just lauging 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 when I fell what my heart can't conceal
(everything moves up 1/2 step)
Oh yes, I'm the great pretender
Just lauging 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...
Pretending that your're.... still around...
