When she goes, she's gone.
If she stays, she stays here.
The girl does what she wants to do.
She knows what she wants to do.
And I know I'm fakin' it,
I'm not rea- lly makin' it.
I'm such a dubious soul,
And a walk in the garden
Wears me down.
Tangled in the fallen vines,
Pickin' up the punch lines,
I've just been fakin' it,
Not rea- lly makin' it.
Is there any danger?
No, no, not really.
Just lean on me.
Takin' time to treat
Your friendly neighbors honestly.
I've just been fakin' it,
I'm not rea- lly makin' it.
This fee- ling of fakin' it--
I still ha- ven't shaken it.
Prior to this lifetime
I surely was a tailor, look at me...
('Good morning, Mr. Leitch.
Have you had a busy day?')
I own the tailor's face and hands.
I am the tailor's face and hands and
I know I'm fakin' it,
I'm not rea- lly makin' it.
This feeling of fakin' it--
I still ha- ven't shaken it.
