THE GREAT PRETENDER - Daniel Lyrics

THE GREAT PRETENDER

OH YES I'M THE GREAT PRETENDER (OOH OOH)
PRETENDING I'M DOING WELL (OOH OOH)
MY NEED IS SUCH I PRETEND TOO MUCH
I'M LONELY BUT NO ONE CAN TELL

OH YES I'M THE GREAT PRETENDER (OOH OOH)
ADRIFT IN A WORLD OF MY OWN (OOH OOH)
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

OOH OOH YES I'M THE GREAT PRETENDER (OOH OOH)
JUST LAUGHING AND GAY LIKE A CLOWN (OOH OOH)
I SEEM TO BE WHAT I'M NOT (YOU SEE)
I'M WEARING MY HEART LIKE A CROWN
PRETENDING THAT YOU'RE STILL AROUND

YEAH OOH HOO
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 (OOH OOH)
I SEEM TO BE WHAT I'M NOT YOU SEE
I'M WEARING MY HEART LIKE A CROWN
PRETENDING THAT YOU'RE
PRETENDING THAT YOU'RE STILL AROUND
