Whenever you're near I hide my tears Behind a painted smile You can't imagine the tears and sorrow Behind a painted smile My life's a masquerade A world of let's pretend, dear Since you took your love Pretending never ends, dear But I can't let you know That I still need you so, no (Darling I hide the tears that I cry) Whenever you're near I hide my tears Behind a painted smile You can't imagine the tears and sorrow Behind a painted smile I can't let you see All the tears I'm crying You would pity me -- That would be like dying If I can't have your love I don't need your sympathy (Darling I hide the tears that I cry) Whenever you're near I hide my tears Behind a painted smile You can't imagine the tears and sorrow Behind a painted smile My life is a masquerade Since you took your love away Whenever you're near I hide my… I just can't let you see How much you hurting me Whenever you're near I hide my tears Behind a painted smile
