I hold you in my arms
As the band plays
What are those words
whispered baby
Just as you turn away
I saw you last night
Out on the
edge of town
I wanna read your mind
to know just what
I've got in this new
thing I've found
So tell me what I see
When I look
in your eyes
Is that you baby
or just a brilliant
disgui-i-i-i-i-i-se?
I heard somebody
call your name
From underneath
our willow
I saw something
tucked in shame
Underneath your pillow
But I've tried
so hard baby
But I just can't see
What a woman
like you
Is doing with me
So tell me
who I see
When I look
in your eyes
Is that you baby
or just a brilliant
disgui-i-i-i-i-i-se?
Now look at me baby
Struggling to do
everything right
And then it
all falls apart
When out
go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim
I walk this world
in wealth
I want to know
if it's you I don't trust
'Cause I damn sure
don't trust myself
And now you play
the loving woman
I'll play the
faithful man
But just don't
look too close
Into the palm
of my hand
We stood at the altar
The gypsy swore
our future was right
But come the
wee wee hours
well maybe baby
the gypsy lied
So when you
look at me
You better look hard
and look twice
Is that me baby
or just a brilliant
disgui-i-i-i-i-i-se?
Tonight our bed is cold
I'm lost in the
darkness of our love
God have mercy
on the man
Who doubts
what he's sure of
