The Great Pretender [1987 single version]

[00:05.78] Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
[00:13.23] Pretending I'm doing well
[00:20.30] My need is such I pretend too much
[00:26.92] I'm lonely but no one can tell
[00:33.93] Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
[00:41.38] Adrift in a world of my own
[00:48.07] I play the game but to my real shame
[00:54.55] You've left me to dream all alone
[01:01.49] Too real is this feeling of make believe
[01:08.84] Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
[01:16.87] Oh, oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
[01:24.36] Just laughing and gay like a clown
[01:31.45] I seem to be what I'm not, you see
[01:38.13] I'm wearing my heart like a crown
[01:44.85] Pretending that you're still around
[01:52.34] Yeah, oh...
[01:58.70] Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
[02:07.76] Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
[02:15.97] Just laughing and gay like a clown
[02:23.01] I seem to be what I'm not you see
[02:29.99] I'm wearing my heart like a crown
[02:36.85] Pretending that you're
[02:42.01] Pretending that you're still around
[02:49.92]
