The Great Pretender

by Rikki Lee

I look into your eyes and you’re lying to me,
Well well it’s no surprise you’re my enemy

No minute or day you say will ever change
Well you’re just torn, torn inside
you’re just torn, you’re torn yeah

I laughed so much today it made me wanna cry,
To see you standing there pushed to the side

You play that part so well to another man’s wife
Well you’re just torn, torn inside
you’re just torn, you’re torn yeah

So long so long, to the great pretender
Just you carry on, you’re the great pretender
So long so long, to the great pretender
He thought he was better but he was wrong

I look into your eyes and you’re lying to me,
Well well it’s no surprise you’re my enemy.

No minute or day you say will ever change
Well you’re just torn, torn inside
you’re just torn, you’re torn yeah

So long so long, to the great pretender
Just you carry on, you’re the great pretender
So long so long, to the great pretender
He thought he was better but he was wrong

Take a look at you now, what do you see
If your ever in doubt it’s only me, its only me
It’s only me, it’s only me
That you always wanted to be

You’re the great pretender
You’re the great pretender (So Long, So long)
But you thought you were better (So Long, So long)
You’re the great pretender (So Long, So long)
