I am just a fool

An imposter and a fake

Like the lady of the lake

I'm drowning in the waves of my deceit

But rescued by your face each time we meet

If I tell you the truth at last

Would I lose your esteemed affection

Would you hate me and curse my name

I'd only have myself to blame

So why upset you now

When we can still be friends

As the truth just slightly bends

I'm happy in my mad hypocrisy

Pretending I'm the man I'll never be
