You pretend you're so cool   It's not you who's the fool   Says the voice on your shoulder      You pretend you're so calm   And you've never been harmed   But you're crying inside      Can't deny what you find under the cover   Can't deny what you need is more than a lover      You would like to believe   You could never deceive   Not yourself or another      When the going gets rough   You pretend you're so tough   But you're hurting inside      Can't deny what you find under the cover   Can't deny what you need is more than a lover      Can't deny      What you need is a friend   You can trust till the end   And you don't need no other      After all you've been through   I can see why you choose   Living life in disguise      Can't deny what you find under the cover   Can't deny what you need is more than a lover      Can't deny what you find under the cover   Can't deny what you need is more than a lover   Can't deny, can't deny, can't deny
