BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN - Brilliant Disguise lyrics
rate meI hold you in my arms as the band plays<br>What are those words whispered baby just as you turn away<br>I saw you last night out on the edge of town<br>I wanna read your mind and know just what I've got in this new thing I've found<br>So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes<br>Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise<br><br>I heard somebody call your name from underneath our willow<br>I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow<br>Well I've tried so hard baby but I just can't see<br>What a woman like you is doing with me<br>So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes<br>Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise<br><br>Now look at me baby struggling to do everything right<br>And then it all falls apart when out go the lights<br>I'm just a lonely pilgrim I walk this world in wealth<br>I want to know if it's you I don't trust 'cause I damn sure don't trust<br>Myself<br><br>Now you play the loving woman I'll play the faithful man<br>But just don't look too close into the palm of my hand<br>We stood at the alter the gypsy swore our future was right<br>But come the wee wee hours maybe baby the gypsy lied<br>So when you look at me you better look hard and look twice<br>Is that me baby or just a brilliant disguise<br><br>Tonight our bed is cold<br>I'm lost in the darkness of our love<br>God have mercy on the man<br>Who doubts what he's sure of
