A great disguise



People talking, think I'm all right Think I'm doin' fine Goin' through the motions of my life Go to work now every mornin' Yeah I play the part And hide away the contents of my solemn heart But when the sun goes down And the moon is high I can't control the flood of all these tears inside And if they only knew They'd be so surprised I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise Keep 'em guessin', keep 'em laughin' Build that wall up high As long as they don't see the other side You've really done it Done a number, a number on my soul But I'll be damned if I'll ever let you know But when the sun goes down And the moon is high There's no way to hide the truth from me, myself, and I Yeah, I wear it well Though it ain't my size I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise I'm not one to show emotion Like some fools I see I won't wear my heart out on my sleeve I don't miss you Not for a moment I'm gonna be okay Words of wisdom spoken By the light of day But when the sun goes down And the moon is high Your memory pulls me under like a strong riptide I'm still in love with you It's all smoke and lights I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise I'm just a good pretender in a great disguise
