Lyrics Behind a Painted Smile (Mono Version) - The Isley Brothers
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 (Masquerade)
A world of let's pretend, dear
Since you took your love (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, uh
I can't let you see (Let you see)
All the tears I'm crying
You would pity me (Pity me)
That would be like dying
If I can't have your love
I don't need your sympathy
(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
My life is a masquerade
Since you took your love away
Whenever you're near I hide my tears
I just can't let you see
How much you hurting me
Whenever you're near I hide my tears
Behind a painted smile
