Joe Diffie This Pretender Lyrics

This Pretender Lyrics

(Gary LeVox/Zack Turner/Lonnie Wilson)



Here you come knockin' on my
heart like a sledge hammer

Tearin' down these walls I built so high

I'm
tryin' to hide the truth behind all this false glamour

But somehow the truth
still shows up in my eyes 



Got a smile painted on my face

Got my
heartache locked away prayin' you won't see

Stayin' steady, stayin'
strong

Actin' like there's nothin' wrong 'til you look at me

Won't win
this fight I surrender

So turn another page of this pretender




Sometimes I think I put it all behind me and I'm finally
healing

If you judge a book by it's cover then I'm alright

For a moment
I find some piece of mind that my heart is stealing

Looks like I'm livin' it
up but I'm dyin' down deep inside

Oh yeah 



Got a smile painted on
my face

Got my heartache locked away prayin' you won't see

Stayin'
steady, stayin' strong

Actin' like there's nothin' wrong 'til you look at
me

Won't win this fight I surrender

So turn another page of this
pretender 



Won't win this fight I surrender

Mmm Mmm turn another
page of this pretender

Pretender, still your pretender

Turn another
page

Pretender, still your pretender

I'm livin' a lie I can't deny
it

Pretender, still your pretender

It's never ending, I'm always
pretending

Pretender, still your pretender
