To Tell You The Truth – Wanda Jackson

I have learned to pretend that I’m happy
I can act like I’m doing well
But to tell you the truth I’ve been lonely
So lonely though no one can tell

When I’m asked if I ever miss you
I can smile and say “not anymore”
But to tell you the truth I still miss you
Much more than ever before

I’ve been too proud to say “forgive me”
And I’ve kept all the words inside
And I’ve lost the right to love you
Yes I pay for my foolish pride

So I’ll hold back the tears when I see you
I’ll act like you’re only a friend
But to tell you the truth I still love you
And I wish you were mine again
Yes to tell you the truth I still love you
And I wish you were mine again
