The Great Pretender

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, oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
 Just laughing 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
 Yeah, oh...
 Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
 Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
 Just laughing 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 you're still around
