Píseň: The Great Pretender
- Interpret:
- Sam Cooke
- Album:
- Hits Of The 50's
oh yes, I'm the Great pretender pretending 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 play the game but to my real shame You've left me to dream all alone Too real is this feeling of make-belief Too real when I feel what my heart can 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 Too real is this feeling of make-belief Too real when I feel what my heart can 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
