The crowd sees me out dancing

Carefree and romancing

Happy with my someone new

I'm laughing on the outside

Crying on the inside

'cause I'm still in love with you

They see me night and daytime

Having such a gay time

They don't know what I go through

I'm laughing on the outside

Crying on the inside

'cause I'm still in love with you

No one knows it's just a pose

Pretending I'm glad we're apart

And when I cry, my eyes are dry

The tears are in my heart

My darling, can't we make up?

Ever since our breakup

Make believe is all I do

I'm laughing on the outside

Crying on the inside

'cause I'm still in love

I am still in love with you
