Oh, yes, I'm a 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 a great pretender
I drift in a world of my own
I play the game, but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all along
To realize this fear
A feeling of make-believe
To me, when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh, yes, I'm a great pretender
Just like a reggae, like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not
You see me, I'm a great pretender
You see, I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
The real is this feeling of make-believe
To me, when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh, yes, I'm a great pretender
Just like a reggae, 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
Pretending that you're still around
Still around
