A Great Disguise Lyrics

People talking, thinking I'm all right

Think I'm doing 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.

CHORUS:

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

Doing a number, a number on my soul

But I'll be damned if I'll ever let you know.

CHORUS:

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 sky

CHORUS:

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.
