The Great Pretender

The Great Pretender - The Platters/Buck Ram

Yes I'm the great pretender

Pretending that I'm doing well

My need is such I pretend too much

I'm lonely but no one can tell

Yes I'm the great pretender

Adrift in a world of my own

I've played the game

But to my real shame

You've left me to grieve all alone

Too real is this feeling

Of make believe

Too real when I feel what my

Heart can't conceal

Yes I'm the great pretender

Just laughin 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

Too real is this feeling

Of make believe

Too real when I feel what

My heart can't conceal

Yes I'm the great pretender

Just laughin 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
