MARTINA MCBRIDE - A Great Disguise lyrics

rate me

People talking, think 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

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
