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 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
