Enrico Ruggeri - The Great Pretender lyrics

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, (not) you see, (you see) I'm wearing my heart like a clown Pretending that you're still around Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal Oh, yes (yes), I'm the great pretender Just laughing and gay like a clown I seem to be what I'm not (what I'm not), you see (you see) I'm wearing my heart like a clown Pretending that you're... pretending that you're still around
