Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such, I pretender too much
I'm lonely, but no one can tellOh! Yes, I'm the great pretender,
A drift in a world of my own
I play the game, but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all aloneI play the game, but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is the 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 crownPretending that you're still around
Too real is the feeling of make me 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
