Brilliant Disguise by Bruce Springsteen

I hold you in my arms
As the (1)________ plays
What are those words (2)__________________ 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 (3)__________ I've found
So tell me what I see
When I look in your eyes
Is that you baby
Or (4)________ a brilliant disguise

I heard (5)________________ (6)________ your name

But I (8)________ can't see
What a (9)__________ (10)________ you

When I (12)________ in your eyes
Is (13)________ you baby
Or just a brilliant disguise

And then it all falls apart
(Oh) When out go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim
I walk (14)________ world in wealth

Or just a brilliant disguise

Tonight our bed is cold
I'm lost in the darkness of our love
God (26)________ mercy on the man
Who (27)____________ what he's sure of
