The great Pretender
The Platters

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,
A drift 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, 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 fell 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… (still around)
