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
 
A drift in a world of my own
 
I play the game; but to my real shame
 
You've let 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.

I'm wearing my heart like a crown
