Lyrics

[Verse 1] A smile on my face A song on my lips Pretending is all I do I'm painting the town red To hide a heart that's blue [Verse 2] I'm gay with the crowd I play with the crowd But, oh, if they only knew I'm painting the town red To hide a heart that's blue [Bridge] Must I go on, carrying on? My merry song is just pretend Loving you so, wanting you so Where will it end? How will it end? [Verse 3] A smile on my face A song on my lips But never forgetting you I'm painting the town red To hide a heart that's blue
