Brilliant Disguise

I hold you in my arms as the band plays
What are those words whispered baby just as you turn away
I saw you last night out on the edge of town
I wanna read your mind to know just what
I've got in this new thing I found
So tell me what I see
When I look in your eyes,
is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise?

I heard somebody call your name
from underneath our willow
I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow
Well I've tried so hard baby
But I just can't see what
a woman like you is doing with me
So tell me who I see
When I look in your eyes,
is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise?

Now look at me baby struggling to do everything right
And then it all falls apart oh when out go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim, I walk this world in wealth
I wanna know if it's you I don't trust
'Cause I damn sure don't trust myself

Now you play the loving woman,  
I'll play the faithful man
But just don't look too close into the palm of my hand
Oh, we stood at the alter
The gypsy swore our future was right
But come the wee wee hours
Well maybe baby the gypsy lied
So when you look at me,
you better look hard and look twice
Is that me baby or just a brilliant disguise?

Tonight our bed is cold,
I'm lost in the darkness of our love
God have mercy on the man who doubts what he's sure of
