The Great Pretender

Easy come for some that's easy go

But it's never easy on your own

Times will change for those who, who'd never know

Till it's too late to get back home

Great pretender, there will come a day

When the last song fades and you've grown old

Great pretender, you cannot replace

All the love you lost long ago

Won't you take your final bow, you're on your own

Lights for now they are still shining bright

But you can't escape this truth in time

Mask you wear is only your disguise

To hide the tears that fall inside

Great pretender, there will come a day

When the last song fades and you've grown old

Great pretender, you cannot replace

All the love you lost long ago

Won't you take your final bow, you're on your own

Do you remember when you promised her

That you would be there till the end

A distant dream led to the, to the deepest hurt

And though you've tried, you can't forget

Great pretender, there will come a day

When the last song fades and you've grown old

Great pretender, you cannot replace

All the love you lost long ago

Won't you take your final bow, you're on your own
