The Great Pretender lyrics

Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender, Pretending that I'm doing well I need you such, I can't tell too much I'm lonely, but no one can tell Oh! Yes, I'm the great pretender, A drift in a world of my own Yes, 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 as a clown When I seem to be what I'm not you see, I'm wearing my heart like a crown Pretending that you're still around
