Lyrics Keeping Up Appearances - Lynn Anderson feat. Jerry Lane

When we're around with other folks, you smile at me
You love my jokes, we're such a happy couple, you and I
And when we're walking down the street
You hold my hand, you act so sweet
And I don't know, if I should laugh, or cry

We're only, keeping up appearances
Hiding, all our loneliness
Fooling everyone, but us, with lies
It seems we're tied together, more or less
With a strange, unhappiness
Keeping up appearances
When we should say, "Goodbye"

When we're alone, no one to see
You never, even talk to me
When friends are near, you put on, quite a show
And you don't do so bad, yourself
At keeping them from finding out, and why
We even bother, 'we don't know

We're only, keeping up appearances
Hiding, all our loneliness
Fooling everyone, but us, with lies
It seems, we're tied together, more or less
With a strange, unhappiness
Keeping up appearances
When we should say, "Goodbye"
