oh 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
oh yes, i'm the great pretender
adrift in a world of my own
i play the game but to my real shame
you left me to dream all alone
pretending that 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 left me to dream all alone
