Behind A Painted Smile (Remastered 2025)

Whenever you're near I hide my tears
behind a painted smile
You can't imagine the tears and sorrow
behind a painted smile

My life's a masquerade
a world of let's pretend, dear
since you took your love
pretending never ends, dear
but I can't let you know
that I still need you so, no

(Darling I hide the tears that I cry)
Whenever you're near I hide my tears
behind a painted smile
You can't imagine the tears and sorrow
behind a painted smile

I can't let you see
all the tears I'm crying
you would pity me
that would be like dying
if I can't have your love
I don't need your sympathy

My life is a masquerade
since you took our love away
I just can't let you see
how much you're hurting me
