Brilliant Disguise by Bruce Springsteen

I (1)________ you in my arms
As the (2)________ plays
What are those words (3)__________________ baby
Just as you (4)________ away
I saw you last night
Out on the edge of town
I wanna read (5)________ mind
To (6)________ just what I've got in (7)________ new thing I've found
So tell me what I see
When I (8)________ in your eyes
Is (9)________ you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

I heard somebody call your name
From underneath our willow
I saw (10)__________________ tucked in shame
Underneath your pillow
Well I've (11)__________ so hard baby
But I (12)________ can't see
What a woman like you
Is (13)__________ with me
So tell me who I see
When I (14)________ in your eyes
Is (15)________ you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

Now look at me baby
Struggling to do (16)____________________ 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 want to know if it's you I don't trust
'Cause I (17)________ sure don't trust myself
Now you play the loving woman
I'll (18)________ the faithful man
But just don't look too close
Into the palm of my hand
We stood at the altar
The gypsy swore our future was right
But come the wee wee hours
Well maybe baby the (19)__________ lied
So when you look at me
You better look (20)________ and look twice
Is that me baby
Or (21)________ 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
