Dolly Parton - The Great Pretender Lyrics

Artist: Dolly Parton

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: Buck Ram

Oh, oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
Pretending that I'm doing well
My need is such, I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell

Oh, oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I've played the game, but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone

Too real is this feeling of make-believe
Too real, when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearin' my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

Too real is the feeling of make-believe
Too real, when I feel what my heart can't conceal

Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender
Just laughin' and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not, you see
I'm wearin' this old heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around

But I know what I am
I am the great pretender
