The Great Pretender Songtext
von Dolly Parton
The Great Pretender Songtext
Oh-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've played the game but to my real shame
You′ve left me to dream all alone
Too real (too real) is this feeling of make-believe
Too real (too real) when I feel what my heart can′t conceal
Oh 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 wearin' my heart like a crown
Pretending that you′re still around
Too real is the feeling of make-believe (you're also real)
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh 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 wearin' this old heart like a crown
Pretending that you′re still around
But I know what I am
I am 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've played the game but to my real shame
You′ve left me to dream all alone
Too real (too real) is this feeling of make-believe
Too real (too real) when I feel what my heart can′t conceal
Oh 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 wearin' my heart like a crown
Pretending that you′re still around
Too real is the feeling of make-believe (you're also real)
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh 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 wearin' this old heart like a crown
Pretending that you′re still around
But I know what I am
I am the great pretender
